Client Service Coordinator

Client Service CoordinatorThe Client Service Coordinators have the critical and demanding role of often being the first and the last friendly, welcoming and professional representatives of our practice. This can include, but is not limited to, meeting face to face, talking on the phone and involving clients in shared decision making.PROBLEM RESOLUTIONWhy Problem Resolution is important: Problems are very likely to occur at some point during your relationship with your clients. Positively resolving a client's problem when it is reported to you improves a client's overall experience and keeps them loyal. It is important to remember that the "problem" typically isn't with the quality of medicine provided but with a breakdown in the communication or understanding between the client and the hospital team. It is equally important to remember that every Banfield associate influences a client's experience and they should feel comfortable addressing any concerns a client may have both quickly and efficiently.BEST PRACTICES:Pay attention to a client's body language and what their words and behavior are telling you about their experience. Pay similar attention to your own body language – it is critical that you communicate clearly and honestly with a client that you want to listen patiently, understand completely, and resolve their concern fairly.Validate the client's concerns with an empathy statement and thank them for bringing the problems to our attention.Give the client the opportunity to voice his/her concerns without interruption or argument. Sometimes a client just wants to be heard and have their concerns validated. This alone may rectify the situation or at the very least show the client that you are willing to work towards a common result.Consider inviting the client into an exam room where you can discuss the issue privatelyAddress the concern quickly. One of the quickest ways to establish a client's expectations is to ask them what you can do to rectify the situation. Once you have an idea of what your client wants, you can identify and offer solutions.If you are unable to help resolve the concern immediately, then let the client know that you would like to share these concerns with your Practice Manager and have her/him call you to discuss them further. Ask the client for some time to discuss the matter and have the PM contact them. Ensure you have valid contact information and provide an expectation for the follow up contact.The pay range for this role is$16.93 - $21.63 HourlyThe pay range listed reflects a general hiring range for the area, with the specific rate determined based on the candidate's experience, skill level, and education, and may vary depending on location or applicable minimum wage laws.Here at Banfield, we prioritize your well-being and professional growth by offering a comprehensive total rewards package, including health, wellness, and financial support for you, your family, and even your pets.
