Am interested
You have no idea how helpful your video is. Thank you very much.
Glad it helped!
This was so helpful! Thank you
I'm so glad!
I work at a new clinic that’s divided into two practices. I’m not certified so I’m getting trained on the job for both, clinical and administrative tasks. It’s not difficult but there’s a lot of details that I still have to learn and it does frustrate me when the clinic gets busy. I do wish they had someone full time at the front but for now it’s me and another assistant who is certified and she’s been really helpful. It can get very crazy at times 😅
I feel you. Choosing an online self-paced medical assistant training program that prepares you to get certified is always recommended. This way, you can learn from the comfort of your home and get your training before you start working. And when you do find a job, you're a lot more confident, and it's not that hectic.
my wife was promoted to MA/Office Manager 3 years ago and she wasn't certified, and now she is now looking into getting her certification
@@mongrueles I just finished my course, but it is hard to find a job, because most clinics want to find someone has experience
You are so lucky, I finished my course, a month ago, but I feel hard to find a job, as most clinics are looking for someone who have experience
@@jenniferchen7943Yes, it's critical to find a training program that includes an Externship so you get that clinical experience for your resume! It's a big component! We cover all of this in the free masterclass MedicalAssistantMasterclass.com
We don’t make enough money anywhere for what we do. I roomed over 400 patients last month. EKGs on 98% of them. And only make double what I made 10 years ago. But i love it!
We had 2000 patients last month and we have 7 MAs. Plus having to be a ray of sunshine all day, it is exhausting.
Be prepared.
Where are MAs licensed? In Florida we just have a cert.
can a person having bachelor in business administration degree outside of canada can try for this degree or citification?
im mid 30's and looking for a new career after trying many different things. my mom has always encouraged me to get into health care and im thinking about becoming a MA to get started in the field. it seems like a good entry point and theres a ton of different things you can get into afterwards.
Absolutely! It's one of the best ways to get into healthcare. Check out me free masterclass to see what to expect, and the best ways to get there saving time and money MedicalAssistantMasterclass.com
Get a job in a medical office as a receptionist you will learn a lot and then you will know if you really want to be an MA you would know within the first 90 days you’ll see the MAs and what they do and you can ask them a lot of questions. You only need a high school diplomato become a receptionist and they will train you and what you learn will be very valuable later
Currently in a Clinical Medical Assistant program got a few more months to go 😅
@@micholerita-iz9fd I’m not sure what the requirements are for a student in high school.
@@micholerita-iz9fd For enrolling in any training program, even for medical assistants, the minimum requirement is to hold a high school diploma or GED equivalent. If you have that, you're good to go. And If you need help finding the right training program, sign up for our free masterclass here: MedicalAssistantMasterclass.com/
I want to do it but I can’t handle drawing blood and I’m not good with math.
You will be fine!!! Come on
Medical Assistants aren't required to draw blood! In fact, in many cases they never have to perform those roles. I wouldn't let that stop you!
@micholerita-iz9fdNot really, no!! I mean, occasionally, for administrative work, you might have to perform some basic calculations that anyone can perform. And plus, if you work as a Clinical Medical Assistant, you'll mainly focus on the clinical side, which doesn't involve math.
@@WithGrant im interested in the medical field but also cannot do drawing blood or blood in general. it doesnt gross me out but i could never do surgeries or the duties of a nurse. glad to hear there are roles in the field that dont require that kind of work as it was one of the barriers to enter for me
@@WithGrantthank you for your response
Very important to know
Hi sweetie I have a question is the certificate off medical assistance get expired in tow years and it’s have to renew it ? Or not
Hey, The CCMA certification issues by the NHA expires every 2 years. And you need to renew it.
@@WithGrant thanks 🙏
Im 31 i am a mother of 2 girls and ive been wanting to get into CMA i really want to join CalRegional for the 2024 CMA classes for so long what holds me back is that i am worried in failing ....but i know i can do it i have experience as a caregiver and my spare time i read and learn about the medical field .....ive succeeded as a mother but i pause my life for my kids and family but now all i want is to succeeded for me...and whats living if you dont take a that leap for better and i need help with that❤
Hey Selene! Totally get it...your situation is very common! Here's the good news: if you choose the right training program and decisions it should be problem for you whatsoever :) Check out the free masterclass to learn about all of this! MedicalAssistantMasterclass.com
They are easy programs. You can do it. Don't be intimidated. I am not an MA. I am in a different health care field. Use the internet to learn as much as you can. I once spoke to a licensed court interpreter and I asked her how do you keep up with so many words out there in the medical and legal fields that you have to know? And she said she literally sleeps with the dictionary next to her. I sleep with my laptop next to me. I even cracked the screen when I rolled over. 😂
@carle5538 I have 2yrs experience in caregiving but being in the medical field has been something I've been drawn into, you should see my CZcams history just Videos of ER surgeries, learning about the body haha lol your right I shouldn't be intimidated 😊🙏🏼🙌 thank you 4 the comment
@@WithGrant thank you 😊
I m 50 is it too late to do it? Thanks
No way! :) It's very common for those in there 50s to transition into the healthcare field, or to move within healthcare. Many people are drawn to it because of the salary, perks, and more!
Is medical assistant a stressful job?
Yes it definitely can be very stressful. Sometimes a patient can code if you give a patient the wrong medication they could have an allergic reaction and that could be extremely dangerous. If you don’t verify Miss Smith by a middle name with the date of birth, you may see the wrong Mrs. Smith. There is a lot of room for error, a lot of clerical work a lot of math and a lot of hustling not a lot of downtime
i want to become a medical assistant .. but i have a bachelor in arts with no science in high school 🤨
Hey there! You don't need a college degree to begin the program and become a Medical Assistant. The programs require no prior experience or background :)
@@WithGrant i am in india
This is exactly what I needed to know...@@WithGrant. Because am new in sweden. Going to sfi for my Swedish language. After I want to do medical assistance...later as years pass by if I want to be a nurse maybe I will.
You don’t need any of that to become a medical assistant you either take the course and take the test or you can work in an office for five years and test out in a lot of states
Can becoming a medical assistant help you with becoming a doctor faster?
There's a ton of benefits if you want to become a doctor: you begin working in the field learning about medicine, patient care, etc. , you get better insight into what specialties you might like, and you get a great paying job while you work towards that!
