 Duties and Responsibilities: Certified Medical Assistants are multiskilled practitioners who assume a wide range of roles in physicians' offices and other health care settings, and are viewed by physicians as vital partners in increasing medical office productivity. In small practices, CMAs are usually "generalists," handling both administrative and clinical duties and reporting directly to an office manager, physician, or other health practitioner. Those in large practices tend to specialize in a particular area under the supervision of department administrators. The following are typical duties that CMAs perform (clinical duties may vary according to state law).

Salary: $28,871-$39,673

Education: Many medical assisting programs are accredited by either the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (CAAHEP) or the Accrediting Bureau of Health Education Schools (ABHES). These accredited programs typically offer internships at hospitals or clinics as part of their programs. Coursework at post secondary schools and colleges is split into medical training and office training. Medical courses include physiology, anatomy, and medical terminology. Office training includes insurance processing, keyboarding, record-keeping and accounting procedures. Students are taught first aid, clinical procedures, laboratory procedures, and how to administer medications. They may also study medical law, ethics, and patient relations. 

 Reflection:  I would not like to become  a Medical Assistant because I have other dreams and visions of doing something else. It’s a very good job , but I wouldn’t do it.

My thanksgiving weekend was okay I guess. Slept in, workout, write music, but overall Thanksgiving day was pretty good and awesome. We had  plenty and various selections of food and desserts that day with my family and friends. All that food ended up as leftovers and became food for a whole week. It was just fun and fantastic. I also played drums and guitar along the break and practiced the piano and my new synthenizer. Plus my uncle took me to his job at DC shoe company in huntinting beach , hes a graphic artist, so yea it was fun being there. On the break, every morning I kept waking up at 7 in the morning for some reason (chuckles). After-all it was a good break.

        "Righteous community unity starts with ONE upright soul, whether it is a community of family                   members, students, neighbors, teammates, or business associates. Unity conquers worthy pursuits more         quickly and with less effort than individual effort alone."

                                                                 Home Health Aide

Duties and Responsibilities:  Home health aides make a remarkable difference in the lives of the sick, disabled and elderly. By assisting with personal tasks such as dressing and bathing, and helping to keep homes safe and clean, they allow those who would otherwise need a higher level of care the opportunity to live on their own. They also arrange leisure activities and transportation for clients so that they can remain engaged in their communities. Some states also allow home health aides to administer medication or check vital signs under the supervision of a healthcare practitioner. The opportunity to improve the quality of life for those in need through hands-on care and contact is rare indeed, particularly with the low educational threshold required to enter this rewarding field of work

Education: There is no standardized educational requirement for HHAs. In some states, not even a high school diploma or equivalent is required. Other states require HHAs to take preparation classes (usually offered at community colleges or vocational/technical schools) before they begin working .

                                             

Reflection: I wouldn’t be one because I could have my mind set on something else. Like trying to pursue another job or professional career.
