Thanks for working here this week: Keely Geer, CCH Professional Development

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.

Allow us to introduce Keely Geer, the E-Learning Specialist with CCH’s Professional Development, Infection Prevention, Employee Health and Case Management departments in Campbell County, Wyoming. Keely has an Associate of Arts degree from Gillette College, and is currently working on earning her Bachelor’s Degree. She’s been with CCH for a year and a half, but has been in the health care industry for four years.

For those who don’t know, Keely is part of a team that provides annual compliance education, continuing education and assistance with formal education and certificates for all of CCH’s employees. The department partners with several community colleges and universities to offer students clinical experience. Our Health Sciences Education Center is located on the Gillette College campus and provides CCH with the ability to hold several classes concurrently. This department also includes Employee Health and the medical library for staff. The case management side guides employees at CCH, and other organizations in the community, through the injury care process—from onset of injury or illness, to safe return to work or optimal health.

Keely was inspired to work in healthcare because she believes that it’s a vital part of any community. “I wanted to be a part of serving the community in a positive way. It’s an incredible blessing to work for Campbell County Health,” she says.

Keely calls her mother-in-law Virginia Geer, who previously worked at CCH, her healthcare hero. “I watched her in awe when she demonstrated such devotion and care to my father-in-law, Larry. She provided invaluable support and comfort to him during his battle with cancer. I have a tremendous amount of respect for those that care for others with such compassion,” she says.

When Keely isn’t at work, she thoroughly enjoys helping other women with skincare and makeup. “It has helped me get to know and help so many amazing women, who have become friends. I also enjoy spending time with my husband, Kevin, and our children—we all absolutely love to travel,” she says.

We asked Keely what she likes most about working for CCH, and what excellence every day means to her. Check out her response:

“I feel the most pride in my work here at CCH, in having the honor of working with an organization built with so many incredible people. I feel like I'm a part of a team and I'm always meeting new amazing people who are a part of that team.

What I like most about working in my department is the positive leadership. I also like the team's strong work ethic, devotion to excellence and willingness of everyone to help each other. I feel like our leadership both challenges and encourages us in our skills and abilities. We also have a team of people who have a fantastic sense of humor and that makes working with them so truly amazing.

Excellence Every Day means consistency, to me. Every day, we need to consistently strive to challenge ourselves and others to bring exceptional care to our community and surrounding area as well as each other.”

We couldn’t agree more, Keely. Thank you for being a part of our team. We appreciate you!
