Spotlight: Kulwant Kaur, RN
Meet Kulwant Kaur, RN, our Utilization Management Outpatient (OP) Clinical Manager.
Originally from India, Kulwant was inspired to pursue a career in nursing after experiencing the skill, patience and kindness nurses showed while caring for her ill mother. “That experience stayed in my heart and inspired me to become the kind of steady presence for others that they were for us.” Kulwant shares.
After completing nursing school, Kulwant moved to the United States to pursue the American dream, beginning a new chapter with a new culture and English as her second language. Through determination, compassion and hard work, she built a meaningful life and career that ultimately led her to Kern Family Health Care.
In her current role, Kulwant supports timely access to outpatient care for members. “What I love most about my work is being able to support people on both sides: helping members feel informed and reassured, and helping my teammates feel confident, valued and proud of the care and service we deliver,” she says.
Kulwant’s heritage and values continue to shape her leadership style each day. “I try to listen with care, communicate with respect and advocate for members and my team when the health care process feels confusing or stressful,” she says.
Kulwant encourages young AAPI professionals to stay curious, lead with compassion, and to not be afraid to ask for help.
“With persistence, I can find my way, and I try to bring that same steadiness and care to every member and teammate I support.”
