Bio
Noemi Lopez, SPHR, SHRM-SCP
I had an opportunity to promote Debbie into a management position when I observed her exceptional skills. Debbie is a detail oriented and organized individual who understands the importance of regulatory compliance. She is well versed in all aspects of the credentialing process including: background checks, drugscreens, physicals, TB tests, professional certifications, etc. Debbie is intelligent, articulate and holds herself to extremely high standards. If given the opportunity, I would not hesitate to hire Debbie for a credentialing role.
