Program name:

HI-9600 Clinical Medical Specialist

Program description:

The HI-9600 Clinical Medical Assistant program is recommended for those who wish to work directly alongside patients in a clinical medical environment. Graduates of this program differentiate themselves from the field of Medical Assistants by completing a comprehensive course in Phlebotomy, creating a path for the Medical Assistant to perform advanced job roles that can lead to greater marketability and earning power. Because today’s medical assistant will be called upon to perform a variety of clinical and administrative duties, this program covers a wide range of skills and objectives that expand beyond the routine functions of a Medical Assistant. Chief among these expanded responsibilities are tasks related to and around the practice of Phlebotomy. This program contains a course specifically designed to prepare students with the knowledge and skills necessary to perform blood draws, collect and handle blood and non-blood specimens and maintain a safe clinical environment. Upon successful completion of this program students will have met the training requirements to sit for the Certified Clinical Medical Assistant (CCMA) exam, and the Certified Medical Administrative Assistant (CMAA) exam, both of which are sponsored by the National Healthcareer Association (NHA). Additionally, students will have the knowledge to complete the training requirements relevant to the Certified Phlebotomy Technician (CPT) certification sponsored by the NHA. Once hired as a Medical Assistant, the student can complete the required 30 successful venipunctures and 10 successful capillary sticks that are necessary to attempt the Phlebotomy certification exam.
