We make it a goal to staff our company with people who truly want to help people and make a difference. We love to reward and recognize our employees for the amazing work they do.

Melissa, you’ve been a valued employee at 180 Medical for nearly 10 years! What makes having a career with 180 Medical so rewarding to you?

Above all else, 180 Medical treats their employees like family. That means a lot to me, and I’m sure I’m not the only one who feels that way.

I feel great pride in everything we accomplish. We do everything in our power to help our customers and give them the best service possible.

Knowing that I come to work to actively take part in helping others every day is a huge plus. I just feel truly blessed to work for 180 Medical.

You’ve held a variety of roles within the company. Talk to us a little bit about some of the previous job titles you’ve had and what you do now.

Later, as the company grew, and more referrals came in from facilities for catheter supply orders, I was given the opportunity to move to an Account Coordinator position. I began to work and process all of the inbound faxes.

That workload increased within the next few years, so a few more people were added to that team to help out with the growing number of referrals to process.

I am now working as the Lead Receptionist. On top of answering the phones alongside my team, my job involves executive assistant duties and helping the reception team become the very best it can be.

Why do you think 180 Medical stands apart from other companies?

We always treat our callers with courtesy and compassion, because we want to help anyone who needs us and turn their lives around!

We all genuinely enjoy what we do here at 180 Medical. We provide the supplies you need along with top-notch, personalized customer service that is noticeably different from other medical supply companies.

What do you like to do most when you’re not at work?

I love to spend time with my three girls and my husband. We are really involved with church and our church family, and I love getting the opportunity to reach out and help others through that as well.

My favorite place to be is at the lake with my friends and family, swimming and fishing all day.

Receptionist Employee Spotlight: Meet Melissa
Jessica is the Sr. Marketing Specialist at 180 Medical, and she has been with the company for over 14 years now. She loves getting to be creative in her role and hearing from customers about the positive impact we've made on their lives.

Outside of work, you can find her hanging out with her husband and their dogs or browsing garden centers (where she will almost certainly buy another houseplant she doesn't really need).
