Thanks for working here Thursday: Jessie Baker, PBT, CCMH Laboratory

Campbell County Health is proud of its employees, and we want the CCH family and the Campbell County community to know about the good work that they do for this organization.

Meet Jessie Baker who works in the Campbell County Memorial Hospital (CCMH) Laboratory as a certified Phlebotomy Technician (PBT), which means that she is a person who draws blood for analysis. At CCMH, the Lab collects samples for approximately 1,000 different tests. Jessie has worked for CCH for three years and was inspired to work in health care because she loves working with people.

“I had had a few experiences in clinics and other facilities where a nurse or a CNA had treated myself, or a family member really well. These experiences stuck with me. They can mean everything to someone who is sick or has a family member who is sick,” says Jessie.

So, the minute she saw the Phlebotomy course at Casper College, she knew it would be a great fit for her. “I was in my late 20s when I went back to college, and I’m happy and fortunate that I found a great fit for myself, my family and my future,” she says.

For fun, Jessie enjoys playing with her children, riding motorcycles and hanging out with her family and friends. We asked Jessie what she likes best about working for CCH, and what excellence every day means to her. Check out her response:

“The relationships that I have built with our patients are my favorite part of the job. I love hearing the stories that they tell. Also, I have some really great co-workers. We are supportive of each other, and love to laugh together. This makes coming to work something to look forward to!

I bring my best self to work each morning and I work very hard to make sure that the care I am giving is compassionate and thoughtful all the time. That to me is being excellent every day.”

We couldn’t agree more, Jessie. Thank you for taking such great care of our patients. We are proud to have you on our team.
