Things that jump out to me:
Under your qualifications, your tense changes a few times, I see filing, answer and dispatched – it would read better if it were consistent (and to be honest seems to contradict the point about attention to detail).
Also, under qualifications I think there are a few points that are repeated in your last point. I would take out the repetitive items:
General office knowledge including but not limited to: keyboarding, 10-key, data entry, multi-line phone skills, and the ability to operate and troubleshoot most types of office equipment including fax and photocopier.
Also – did your job at the realtors end in August 2004, or is that where you are currently employed? If the latter is the case, I would put August 2004 – present.
In terms of your listing of dates for previous employment, I am confused by the following: January 1998 / August 2004
Does this mean that you worked there for the month of Jan 98 and Aug 04 but not in between?
You list one job as having worked there from February 1996 – February 2002, so again I think consistency is needed if the above job was from Jan 98 to Aug 04. And personally I think the dash looks far better than the slash to separate your start and end dates.
Good luck in your job search!

I would limit your resume to 1 page… you’ve got too much information and no one is going to take the time to read all of it. They may receive dozens of resumes, most of them are going to be scanned and dismissed withing a few seconds. I would limit your responsibilities for all previous jobs to a maximum of 2 or 3 items – pick the most important that relates to the position you’re seeking. Obviously, it doesn’t matter that you collected blood and urine samples if you’re applying for jobs in an administrative office. Keep only responsibilities that apply, such as scheduling and filing. Be more specific. For your job listed last, how many patients did you schedule per day or week for testing (or month). It doesn’t have to be a perfect guess… and educated guess is fine. You could then state: scheduled an average of 40 patients per week for testing.
Good luck! Your resume’s not bad, just make sure to use consistency with regards to tense, and to shorten it up. You could leave out the job as instructor at Ryth College since you had other employment during that time. That would save room, and being an instructor isn’t going to help you with your current career objective. Many people now recommend leaving off the career objective because so many people just write a basic one. I don’t use one, and I was able to obtain work in a new career-field. My career advisor recommended that I leave the objective off. Your better bet is to make sure you write an awesome cover letter for each job you apply for.
