Plan Your Healthcare Career Path
Whatever your interest or passion in healthcare, there is a career pathway waiting for you.
I want to work in healthcare --- but I don’t like the sight of blood
There are many allied healthcare professions that treat people in non-medical and non-emergency settings. These are often based on providing therapy and diagnosis.
I want to work in healthcare, but I don’t want to be around sick people
There are many healthcare professions that don’t involve patient care. There are administrative roles, technology roles, healthcare advocacy, and a whole slew of jobs that improve people’s health without interacting directly with patients.
I’m not afraid of intensive situations, but I don’t want to study for years and years
There are many medical roles that don’t require a path to becoming a doctor or nurse, and that are accessible through an associates degree, certification and work experience.
