Real Experience

Prepare for the Real World Experience of being a Medical Assistant by enrolling in occupational specific courses. Medical Assistants provide ambulatory care which means close patient contact in an outpatient setting. You’ll practice collecting and preparing laboratory specimens, perform basic laboratory tests, dispose of contaminated supplies, and sterilize medical instruments. You’ll learn how to draw blood, give injections, remove sutures and change dressings.

At graduation, Medical Assistants are ready to perform the many administrative and clinical tasks that keep the offices of physicians and other health practitioners running smoothly.
