    Healthcare Operations & Consulting Externship

    This externship explores how care coordination work in acute mental health settings can be designed, analyzed, and communicated as a customer-centric operational system. Externs study the case manager’s role at IMH to understand how workflows shape patient experience, surface hidden risks, and make invisible coordination work visible. Through structured analysis, process mapping, and dashboard prototyping, externs learn how operational clarity supports continuity of care, safety, and institutional decision-making.

What I've accomplished

I produced stakeholder maps and a documented account of a case manager's daily responsibilities and workflows, and I summarized coordination, crisis-response, documentation, and communication gaps affecting patient care.

Project breakdown

I mapped stakeholders and documented a case manager’s daily responsibilities, workflows, and pain points, then summarized findings on coordination, crisis response, documentation, and communication gaps that affect patient care.

I mapped workflows and stakeholder responsibilities, identified unclear ownership of responses to worsening patient symptoms, and recommended clearer assignment, communication, and follow-up to reduce delays and patient risk.
