What’s a medical assistant? Medical Assistants (MAs) are a relatively new role within the healthcare industry. MAs are trained to perform both administrative and clinical duties, including updating and filing patient medical records, coding and filling out insurance forms, arranging for hospital admissions and laboratory services, taking medical histories, collecting and preparing laboratory specimens, taking vital signs, and administering medications as directed by a physician.
In the Emily Griffith Medical Assisting program, you’ll learn how to perform most common clinical procedures as well as how to handle administrative duties. Plus, you’ll practice your skills in our on-site medical lab.
Get certified: Although certification is not currently required to work as a Medical Assistant, you’ll be prepared to take the Registered Medical Assistant Exam and practice your skills anywhere in the country!
Clinical placement: Complete a clinical internship in a real-world medical setting, such as a doctor’s office or ambulatory care center. You will be required to complete 200 clinical internship hours in order to complete the program.
Facilities: Practice the skills you’ll need as an MA in Emily Griffith’s simulated medical lab.
