Well actually people do have to go to school to become a health unit coordinator, all the hospitals where I live ask that we do a 6 month to 1 year education program because we need to know basic medical terminology, abbreviations, symbols, processing physicians orders, and signing off on the orders sent so yeah we do.
I am currently in school to become a Health Unit Coordinator, but as I'm going through this course, for some reason I am feeling like I want to become a registered nurse. I would like to hear some feedback from other nurses to help me make a decision.
