Hartford HealthCare Center for Healthy Aging Welcomes New Colleague

“I’m excited to get to know my coworkers and be able to learn and discover the different resources available in each community that can help change an individual’s life,” Jackson said.

Previously, Jackson was a patient access coordinator at Optum UnitedHealth Group in Farmington, where he responded to medical inquiries and scheduled medical service appointments.

Although Jackson is located in Southington, his work covers the entire state. He is the initial point of contact for anyone referred to the Center for Healthy Aging for support, and he will direct them to local services, or connect them to a resource coordinator or dementia specialist.

“A lot of the time, information is needed to improve someone’s situation, and just being able to be the initial contact for the majority of the people who reach out to us is a blessing,” Jackson said.
