As you can see they lumped up all of these things above....which makes it inefficient. You can not be a jack of all trade and still do the job well. I have been all of the above in separate roles and...
Ur used to be just UR. but now the hospital is also using them as case managers. Case manager is not something I would like to go into due to it's scattered multi tasking, and you really need to have...
