Treon Cameron, Scheduling Coordinator
Treon has worked with Right at Home for more than a decade. The small family practice environment of working with an independently owned and operated home care agency appealed to her after she grew tired of the hustle and bustle of corporate America.
Treon is a trained CNA, PCT, Hematology and EKG Technician. She also relies on extensive experience with medical terminology, customer service and scheduling in her busy role coordinating our team's day to day activities.
She says seeing a clear shift calendar is her favorite as she feels a sense of relief knowing she's done her job. When she has time off, she loves shopping and movies.
