To be train as a med tech

[Anurseguy]

Hi everyone, how are you all doing. I just finished my CNA class and passed the Red Cross exams. I'm interested in working as a med tech, but don't know how to go about. My intructor said i could go to living assistance and asked to be trains as a med tech. Today i went to a nursing home and the staff developer said they don't do that. I would have to take classes to be a med tech.

Can anyone help me how can i become a med tech. Where can i go or what should i do to be trains as a med tech. I have a recommendation letter from my intructor to be trains as a med tech, but i don't know if it will help.

I live in Garden Grove, CA and i'm very new to the healthcare field. Can anyone tell me which school or hopistal i could go to get trains.

What is the job discription of a med tech beside passing out medication. I would like to learn more. Thank you in advance.

Sincerely,

HDN

You might post in the California Nurses Forum for more responses. (One of the problems is that when you say med tech, it's going to mean different things to different people. At least if you're talking to people in your own state, things might be a bit more clear.)

Good luck!
