Detalles

The Medical Assisting program is a part-time, 16-month program. Learning is divided into four terms. All theory and clinical courses are held at the Franciscan Health Education Center. Classes meet three days per week from 7:00 am to 3:30 pm in Levels 1, 2, and 3. Students will be assigned to a clinical site to complete the externship requirement in Level 4. Schedules during Level 4 will vary according to externship site availability. Course topics include: Anatomy and Physiology, Medical Terminology, Medical Law and Ethics, Pharmacology and Dosage Calculation, Diet and Nutrition, Pathophysiology, Administrative Procedures, Clinical Procedures, and Laboratory Procedures.

The Franciscan Health Medical Assisting program is designed to prepare students for entry-level positions in the outpatient setting.

Medical assistants are versatile, multi-skilled health professionals specifically trained to work in ambulatory settings under a licensed provider. The practice of medical assisting directly influences the public’s health and well-being and requires training in both clinical and administrative practices as well as supervised practical experience.
