1. Certified Medical Assistant?

   DBall replied to DBall's topic in CNA/MA

   That is a lot of money! Why do those tech schools cost so much? My local community college has a medical assistant classes and you leave being qualified for a job, but it's not accredited, so how does that work? What's the difference between accredi...

   Did you go to one of those tech school colleges? Like Everest? I heard not to go there because it's so expensive!?

3. Certified Medical Assistant?

   DBall replied to DBall's topic in CNA/MA

   Hahaha my bad. I am not looking to go into nursing, I am looking into getting a job that will pay for some school, while I get some hours and experience regardless of how big it is, to further my medical profession after my bachelors. (Medical School...

   DBall posted a topic in CNA/MA

   I had questions about nursing a few months ago, now I have questions on becoming a medical assistant. First off, do they have accredited colleges that handle MA's or are they all the same?

5. Different levels of nursing?

   DBall replied to DBall's topic in General Nursing

   Another question. Do they have programs where I can follow nurses around and see what they do? I know all this HIPAA privacy could prevent that?

   Thanks for all the input. Next semester I am taking more science classes and will see how I manage them to see if the health field is a manageable field for me.

9. Different levels of nursing?

   DBall replied to DBall's topic in General Nursing

   Good thing there are forums like this that people like you can snap me back into reality! You all have my respect in what you do. If nursing isn't meant to be, what other healthcare positions do you think are wise with decent pay? I want nothing to ...

10. Where do LVNs work?

    DBall replied to DBall's topic in LPN/LVN

    I guess I didn't word my question in the best way haha. Sorry for all the confusion. I like helping people. Growing up I have been taught giving service to other people is a good way to be happy. And that saying is true. The question is do I like giv...

11. Different levels of nursing?

    DBall replied to DBall's topic in General Nursing

    Urine and poop wouldn't be a problem. I am also thinking of being a lab tech assistant, and those deal with those and I wouldn't have a problem. Vomit isn't a problem either, I'm just saying, if I had a choice, I wouldn't want to work with that stuff...

    I'm sure I can handle it, I just don't want to have to look at it and deal with it on the job everyday. Or is there no way around it?

    Thanks for the information! Where would someone work if they don't want to work in a hospital and see all the nasty bodily fluids? Do LVNs work in doctor offices? What other specialities of nursing don't have to see nasty fluids like that?

    Oh yeah, and where is a place to work where I won't have to encounter all that stuff I mentioned above?

15. Where do LVNs work?

    DBall posted a topic in LPN/LVN

    Can they work in doctor offices? I feel like I want to be a nurse of some sorts, but I do not want to have to deal with all the nasty bodily fluids (more than just poop and urine) and I don't want to have to give people baths or help them change. Do...
