About Jerry Dickerson

I manage Healthcare IT Projects for a delivery network made up of four hospitals (one a Regional Level 1 Trauma Center), three outpatient diagnostic imaging centers, and community based outpatient treatment, primary and specialty care clinics located in the Fresno / Clovis area that serve the broader Central Valley. I seek to applying my broad multi-industry system expertise in projects that focus on managing the creation, integration, storage, distribution and availability of clinical documentation, data and imaging across the continuum of patient care. My main professional goal is to take my broader experiences in the Navy, Medical Device Manufacturing & Engineering, and Healthcare IT Services and make a significant impact on the availability, efficient and effective delivery of healthcare across the greater Central Valley of California. I also volunteer at Clovis Hills Community Church and for the Project Management Institute - California Central Valley Chapter (PMI-CCVC). In both professional and volunteer roles, I seek to serve others who I share a common passion to make the Central Valley a better place for our families.Current Specialties- Project Management Professional (PMP) Certification- Various Comprehensive Healthcare Record System Implementations - Various Healthcare Data Analytics and \"Cloud\" Network Infrastructure & Security Projects- Various Digital Project Management/Collaboration Software Implementations
