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.
@@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
This video helped me so much because I’m currently in school online for administrative medical assisting & didn’t know that is was two different medical assisting but I hope to do well in school and find a job after I really want to work in a facility doing medical assisting.
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
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.
@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.
@@Certified-Success 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
@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.

hii. How are you. as you told that we need to pass certification so what kind of certificiation is it? as i am pursuing medical office practice cours how can i get job along with it?
I'm in my 40's and been through different job industries (food, manufacturing, BPO). Someone recommended me to take medical assistant if I am thinking of another job. I've watched this video and MA responsibilities may include needles and blood samples...the thing is I am a hemophobia. I don't think taking blood samples is inevitable being a medical assistant.😵 But I want to try being one.

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 UA-cam history just Videos of ER surgeries, learning about the body haha lol your right I shouldn't be intimidated 😊🙏🏼🙌 thank you 4 the comment
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!

I am a Medical Assistant DMF I want to go abroad. You need some help on this matter. can i talk to you Can I apply with this DMF Certificate? Can I go to which country?
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
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 :)
This is exactly what I needed to know...@@Certified-Success. 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

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

Have you look into traveling !
@@Moneylovesme672 - yeah, i did travel for a while and still didn’t make anything.
@@brytishshneez701 maybe look at different agencies I see some contracts starting off at $1500 per week
Where are MAs licensed? In Florida we just have a cert.
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!

Is it a 9-5 or no
I found a program that is ten weeks long for medical assisting. Too good to be true?
Check this video out, it should be an interesting watch
ua-cam.com/video/2nA8NTplIrY/v-deo.html
It is true. My classes will be 8-10 weeks long. You just really have to study hard when it comes to the state board exams.
Am thinking to do medical office assistant is it hard to learn
Its not atall i recently finished my MA
@@molzmo556where did you study? Did you do training? Plan to study and try to do research
Hi just checking out you page and I'm interested in this program but i have high blood pressure and diabetes can i still do this?
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.

It depends on your coworkers.
