Allen Said:

What are some careers in the medical field you do not have to be in the operating room?

We Answered:

All of what Diane said, but if you don't like blood a job in the medical field that has patient contact isn't for you. W/patient contact you will not only be exposed to blood, but puss, open wounds, Flem, poop, rashes, people who don't clean well and so on so if you cant take any of that either consider job in the medical field that don't have patient contact.

Those jobs could be:
Food Service Worker
Unit Secretary

Receptionist
