The Workforce Therapy Files team attended the 2025 Kentucky SHRM Conference, in Louisville. We took the opportunity to interview over 20 professionals who stopped by our booth.
Jason and Jamie were joined by Corina West, an HR Assistant for Grace Health in Corbin, Kentucky. Corina shared her insights on working for a comprehensive healthcare organization that provides family medicine, dentistry, and behavioral health services. Despite only being in her role for a little over a year, she is part of a small three-person team responsible for managing a large workforce of 465 employees. Corina now leads the one-day orientation for all new hires, where she coordinates speakers to cover topics like HIPAA and risk compliance while ensuring new employees understand the "expectancy" of company policies. She noted that their unique leave structure—accruing 6.15 hours of PTO every two weeks instead of having paid holidays—is a key policy she has mastered and often uses to help applicants determine if the role is a good fit.
Corina spoke very highly of her Director, Kim Bingham, whose open-door policy and willingness to handle any task herself have made Corina's transition into HR seamless. While she currently manages the tasks that "everyone else hasn't already had their hands in," she is eager to grow within the department and take on higher-level responsibilities. She finds the work intimidating but deeply rewarding and was excited to be attending her second KYSHRM conference. To keep the conversation moving, she left this thoughtful question for the next participant: "What was the best decision that you've made in your current role and what was the outcome of it?"
