Program Description:

This diploma program is designed to train individuals for entry-level medical office positions. A medical assistant is a medical support professional that performs a variety of tasks to assist physicians in providing patient care, while ensuring that clinics and hospitals run smoothly and efficiently. While medical assistants working in a smaller practice may be required to perform some administrative tasks, those working in larger medical facilities focus mainly on providing support services directly related to patient care. While administrative medical assistants work mainly at the front desk and reception area of a clinic or doctor’s office, clinical medical assistants are more often found at the physician’s side working in close contact with patients. Graduates of this program receive coursework relating to offering assistance to the physician in direct patient care. Graduates will be prepared to seek positions such as clinical/medical assistant.
