Vanessa Compton, Payroll Director

Vanessa serves a blended role  for the Oaks Behavioral Health including clinical and administrative duties.  She works in our Therapeutic Rehabilitation Program, as well as serving as our Payroll Director.  She is nearing completion of her Associate’s of Science degree at Western Kentucky University. 

Vanessa has over 5 years of healthcare experience and over a decade of administrative experience.  This is the perfect combination of experience for her blended role with The Oaks.  Vanessa’s strong attention to detail, positive attitude, and strong work ethic makes her a vital part of our team. 

It all works together.  Doing payroll well is important because keeping the administrative side of things running smoothly for the clinicians allows them to fully focus on their role in helping our clients.  Being a part of the clinical team and seeing the progress that our clients make is so rewarding.  Knowing that I’m a part of direct client care and a part of helping the back office functions run smoothly brings me a high level of satisfaction.
