Hi all,

I am a Sr IS Project Manager at Overlake Medical Center and Clinics in Bellevue, WA, which is also the home of Smartsheet! We are so excited to be neighbors.

My partner, Jeni, and I lead the implementation and support of projects and portfolios for IS and for the entire enterprise with Smartsheet. We are currently involved with our FY25 planning - Smartsheet is a key tool we use to coordinate and manage that process. Which is in addition to our day jobs of running enterprise-wide projects.

Additionally, we act as internal consultants for the whole organization for using Smartsheet within their departments. We have standardized templates and processes with the goal of having the most of the users not needing licenses.

Smartsheet is our main project management tool. We use Control Center to automate the setup our workspaces for approved projects and use a ton of Dynamic Views.

We've been using Smartsheet for about 3 years now and are looking forward to connecting with you all for sharing ideas and networking.

Hi everyone! I’m joining this group because my company serves the healthcare industry in their contact centers and customer experience needs. I’m seeing insights here among you all that are inspiring for me as I consider the many specific issues that exist for this space where data and collaboration are key! My Smartsheet work is focused on operational improvements and streamlining how our business works for our employees and customers everyday. Looking forward to all the discussions! Best, Will

Hello all,

I am Deena Duran. I am a Senior Business Analyst for the University of New Mexico Health Sciences. Although I am not in clinical work, I do help to support others, and typically will build Smartsheet solutions for folks across the Health Sciences. I also help to support the Capital Projects team, which may build/renovate lab spaces, classrooms, and more. It helps to know about how others work in areas adjacent to clinical settings, within healthcare in general.

I have been using Smartsheet since 2019, and use it for a variety of different uses. Lately, the biggest use has been spreading Smartsheet throughout my institution and helping to teach others how to use it!

Thank you all!

Deena

Hi everyone. My name is Isis Taylor.

Where do you work and what’s your department/role?

I’m a Business Analyst/PM working for a health insurance company in Michigan in the senior health services division.

How long have you been using Smartsheet?

I have been using Smartsheet for about a year and a half.

How are you using Smartsheet today or planning to in the future?

I use Smartsheet to plan and manage projects. I also develop custom dashboards, reports and metrics for various stakeholders. I leverage Data Mesh, Dynamic View and other advanced capabilities to streamline processes. Currently preparing to take the Core Product and Product Management certification exams.

What would you like to learn from your peers in the Healthcare & Life Sciences industry?

Use of Smartsheet is growing rapidly at my organization and I’m interested to know what others have put in place in terms of governance and standardization.

Hi everyone!

I'm excited for this space for the HLS workers!

My name is Brooke and I work for VillageMD. We're a value-based care company in the US. I've been here for two and a half years and I wear many hats ;) At the beginning of last year we acquired another large healthcare company and I spent the past year and half managing the merging the tech sphere for the combined organization. I took on a new role this month and am excited for what it brings.

I've been using Smartsheet since I began at VillageMD in 2022. I'm the sys admin and I'm always happy to help my colleagues and others when they run into roadblocks. We use SS in a multitude of ways, including Control Center and a few other apps. I used SS to manage Tech merger decisions and the project plans for individual projects that go along with those decisions. As the tech merge has dwindled down and I start my new role, I continue to use SS for project planning and also to help me manage my tasks.

I'd love to learn more from this group about how others are using Smartsheet for HLS and to brainstorm overcoming roadblocks.

@JulieE Will there be a Healthcare Life Sciences group session or lunch at Engage? I'd love to connect with members of this group. Thanks

Hi Cathy, yes there will be! Our healthcare and Life Science meet and eat will be Wednesday from 11:45-12:45. Julie as well as some solution engineers (myself included) will be there to help you network, answer questions, and chat in person 😄. https://www.smartsheet.com/engage/seattle/sessions/meet-eat-healthcare

Cathy Salscheider · 09/18/24

@Tim C Thanks Tim. Is there a signup required? It seemed like one year, we found the group table but it was full :( . We have 5- 6 people coming - not that we will all be able to join, but we are a pretty close knit group and don't get the chance to be together in person often. Thanks.

tcleaning · 09/18/24

@Cathy Salscheider great question! I'll message Julie to get clarification and get back to you/have her respond.
