How Can We Help You?

Behind every successful healthcare organization are dedicated professionals who help keep everything running smoothly. In this edition of our Employee Spotlight, we're proud to recognize Cortney Keil, Executive Administrative Assistant for the Osage Nation Health System. With years of experience in tribal healthcare, a passion for serving others, and a commitment to supporting both our staff and community, Cortney plays an important role in helping our organization succeed. We're grateful to have her as part of the ONHS team.

Cortney Keil serves as the Executive Administrative Assistant for the Osage Nation Health System Administration Department, where she provides administrative support that helps ensure the organization operates efficiently and effectively. In her role, she assists executive leadership with a variety of day-to-day responsibilities, helping coordinate operations and providing support that allows departments across the Health System to better serve patients and the community. Cortney will celebrate her first anniversary with the Osage Nation Health System on August 18, 2026, but her commitment to healthcare began many years ago. Shortly after graduating from Woodland High School in Fairfax, Oklahoma, she joined the Indian Health Service through the Summer Youth Program. That experience sparked a passion for helping others and confirmed that a career in healthcare was where she wanted to make a difference. Before joining ONHS, Cortney built valuable experience working for the Indian Health Service and later served for seven years as the Administrative Assistant for the Osage Nation Diabetes Program, where she supported staff, patients, and community members while helping coordinate services that promoted healthier lives. What Cortney enjoys most about her work is the opportunity to help people every day. Whether assisting leadership, supporting coworkers, or interacting with patients, she believes that creating a positive and welcoming environment makes a meaningful difference. She especially appreciates the people she works alongside and the opportunity to contribute to an organization dedicated to improving the health and well-being of the Osage community. A proud member of the Grayhorse District, Cortney is of Osage, Otoe, and Cherokee descent and has participated in the Inlonschka dances since she was three years old. She values her family's deep roots within the Osage Nation and is proud to continue serving her community through healthcare. Outside of work, Cortney enjoys spending time with her family and cheering on her son, Jaxon Talon Keil, at his sporting events. She is also actively involved in the community as a member of the Woodland Johnson O'Malley (JOM) Parent Committee, where she has volunteered for the past three years to support Native students and their families. Cortney believes that serving others is about building relationships, offering support, and helping people feel valued. Through her dedication, kindness, and willingness to help wherever needed, she contributes to the welcoming culture that defines the Osage Nation Health System. ... See MoreSee Less
