Vitalchat, a leader in virtual nursing technology, is pleased to announce the addition of two healthcare industry executives to its leadership team, representing an important next step in their rapid growth and expansion in digital healthcare.
Jerry Carter has been appointed Chief Revenue Officer (CRO), bringing over 30 years of expertise in healthcare technology sales, leadership, and strategic partnerships. As CRO, Carter will drive Vitalchat's revenue growth and expand its market presence. "I'm excited to help lead the next robust phase of Vitalchat's journey, working to expand our reach and impact in healthcare," Carter said.
Carter held leadership positions as Vice President of Sales at Avail Medsystems and DocMatter, where he built high-performing sales teams and fostered partnerships with hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers, and major medical device and pharmaceutical partners. Avail Medsystems was an emerging leader in the procedural telemedicine space launching a combined hardware and software SaaS solution just before the pandemic in 2018.
Mackenzie Laughridge joins as Vice President of People and Financial Operations. With over a decade of experience in human resources and finance for early-stage companies, Laughridge will oversee people strategies and financial operations to strengthen Vitalchat's organizational foundation and culture. "I'm thrilled to support Vitalchat's mission by building a strong, values-driven culture that attracts and retains top talent," Laughridge commented.
"We're excited to welcome Jerry and Mackenzie to our team," said Michael Raymer, CEO of Vitalchat. "Their combined expertise will be instrumental in building a scalable business model that supports our mission of providing patient care and clinical support and positions us to grow and engage with investors as we scale."
Vitalchat's mission, "Care Simply", aims to improve patient outcomes, reduce healthcare provider workloads, and mitigate risks through seamlessly integrated virtual nursing solutions.
