Lauren Isber knows a thing or two about navigating the health-care system.

Born in Savannah, Georgia, U.S., to Canadian health-care worker parents, as well as being a patient herself, Lauren currently provides support to Interior Health (IH) patients and clients who need help making medical appointments or using MyHealthPortal.

Through her role as a digital health support clerk, she’s able to help individuals in a personal way, which brings her satisfaction and a sense of purpose and value.

“We all know what it’s like when we need assistance with something and don’t have an option to speak to a person directly.”
