Healthcare Careers and Schools

There are many people who contribute to patient care. During a hospital visit many you will see but many work behind the scenes and are just as important as those you see. Working in healthcare is a team approach, with all members of the team contributing through their own specialty.

Doctors, Nurse Practitioners, and Physician Assistants assess and manage medical treatment. Nurses and allied health provide ongoing care. Support and Administrative staff work to support the day-to-day running of a healthcare organization or practice.

This program will introduce you to some of the healthcare careers, but there are many more than time will allow through this program. You are encouraged to explore healthcare careers on-line to learn more.
