Medical Assistant

Demand for medical assistants is expected to far exceed
supply in the next few years. In fact, locally, there is already
a shortage of these workers, as reported by local human
resource executives. These workers are highly desirable in clinic
settings, with multiple technical skills which provide flexibility
to clinical managers and frees up nursing staff for higher level
activities. Statewide projections are also dramatically good for
this occupational group, with most employment occurring in
physician’s offices, hospitals, and offices of other health care
providers (nurse practitioners, etc.).
