what is the easiest medical field in terms of course work in college?

We Answered:

I would imagine the technician ones are the easiest. As for phlebotomy, it's usually considered a certificate training. If you're interested in phlebotomy, there is a neat field out there that I myself am interested in - clinical laboratory technologist/technician.

Here's a few links:

I was interested in phlebotomy but was disappointed with it only being a certificate program. After looking around, I found out about the career I just mentioned. I dunno if it's easy or not, but it does fit your interests if you want to do lab work.

It would be easier if you listed some ones that you might be interested in as there are probably 100 medical field careers, at least.

I am going to school for medical billing. Does anyone do this and is it pretty easy to get a MB job?

We Answered:

Its a good profession. I went to school for it...it was just a 6month program...I was thinking of going back to a community college to further my education so I will have more experience because its hard finding a job in that field, especially without atleast 2 yrs of experience.

What is the easiest medical career that receives the most money?

We Answered:

Well for occupational therapy, there may not be a chemistry requirement but for the field itself, one will most likely need to lift patients or help them to stand or sit, if even during their hands-on clinical experience. And that is especially true for the physical therapy field. You are smart to know your limitations as I have difficulty with memory and chemistry myself. And just btw, a nurse practitioner is first a registered nurse (BSN) bachelor of science in nursing and then enters a master's degree program for nurse practitioner who can diagnose, treat and prescribe meds for patients under supervision of a medical doctor. However, if one has problems with memory, nursing (including nursing assistant which also involves a lot of lifting and positioning of patients) doesn't sound like the right field as you seem to already realize :)

Perhaps you can think about a career with an administrative edge to it such as health information technology (medical records technician) which is typically an associate's degree while the 'health information administrator' (used to be referred to as 'medical records administrator') generally has a bachelor's degree. They don't really work with patients per se but deal with confidential information and perhaps other health care professionals and workers. Perhaps you can look into your local community college or state university.
