Hi! Thats cool someone who will be starting with me. Long story but I have an A.A.S. in Medical Assisting from Trocaire (graduated from there in Dec. 2010). I wasnt happy with the lack of hands on training. I was at Trocaire for a few years. I started working in the hospital May 2011. I never really worked as a Medical Assistant exactly but I got my foot in the door and have been there since last May part time days. I was a nursing assistant for a few months May 11-July 11 (including training time) but I bid on a higher paying unit clerk position. I was a unit clerk from July 2011-June 2012. I got bumped out of my position, because they were changing the unit clerk hours in the hospital. So it was either layoff or the pharm tech position they offered me. Im kinda wishing I did take the layoff but I didnt. Now Im in pharmacy finishing up training (and of course when schools coming up etc has me there alot now grrr). I dont know if its going to work out because they are making me go per diem and I dont know if the schedulings going to work out. Its scary because everythings coming up! I didnt want to have to quit but I really dont know how it is going to go. I though they woulda been more willing to work with me. Nooone really even explained anything to me or I get different stories. Anyways do you have any healthcare experience? Im just hoping everything works out because I havent had the best luck. I just want to have a good full time job already! Maybe we will see eachother at orientation?

I would just start from the beginning of the book or skim over areas that are more difficult areas for you. All teachers are different, they just might skip around. Anything you can review will come in handy later.
