A Career in Health Care is a Great Choice – Health care jobs are growing and expected to out pace the growth of any industry for the next 20 years! The best place to begin your career in health care is as a Certified Nurse Assistant; jobs are plentiful, experiences vary and you learn the basics of medical terminology, patient assessment and care, anatomy, body systems and disease states. Many CNA’s work for some time as a CNA and then move on to other careers. Here is a sample of programs offered by Cole Holland College and EMT Utah. Cole Holland College, an ACCREDITED institution offers programs in Medical Assisting, Emergency Medical Technician, Advanced Emergency Medical Technician and non-vocational workshops in Anatomy & Physiology, IV Placement Certification, Medical Terminology, Human Anatomy Cadaver Lab and Computer Fundamentals.

Medical Assistant

An exciting opportunity exists in the world of Medical Assisting. In fact according to the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics Medical Assistant employment is expected to grow by 31 percent from 2010 to 2020, much faster than the average for all occupations. Demand will stem from physicians hiring more medical assistants to do routine administrative and clinical duties so that physicians can see more patients.

Cole Holland College, an accredited sister school to AAA CNA Training Centers offers a Medical Assistant program that is 15 months long and allows graduates to work as Medical Assistants. Financial assistance is available.
