I am at a loss I graduate this Thursday with a certificate in Medical Assisting and am scheduled to take my CMA (AAMA) exam in October. I have been applying for jobs like a mad woman and I feel like I see more CNA openings than MA. I've applied at hospitals, private practices, and have even gone to Craigslist. I completed my externship at a pediatric office and LOVED it. I applied for jobs at the hospital (Tx Children's) but I have a sinking feeling my lack of experience will keep me from getting my dream job. I am contemplating getting my CNA once I (hopefully) get a job and working nocs so I can go back to nursing school (BSN is my ultimate goal). Nurses...student nurses...CNAs....anybody, please give me some advice. Thank you in advance.

Hi y'all. A little background... I graduated from HS at 16 and started college in the fall. My original plan was to go straight into nursing school, get my ADN, work for a while then go back and complete a BSN/MSN and become an NNP. Things happened and I realized I didn't want to wait that long to get into the medical field so I applied for a MA program, got accepted and will be graduating this August. I'm in my final semester and am doing my externship at TCP. I have decided now that I want to get my LVN, continue working for Texas Children's and eventually go back for my BSN and maybe get a Masters in child development and/or psychology. My passion is working with kids and providing them with effective, quality care and helping them through the uncertainty and confusion that being in a vulnerable (patient) position brings. I was thinking about becoming a ChildLife specialist but I really enjoy the medical aspect as well...... Ahhhh I'm confused....if that isn't already obvious. I know for a fact I want to be in the medical field working with kids.....as to which profession I ultimately want to end up at.....I'm hopping back and forth like a grasshopper.... help me? Please and thank you :)
