Employment Opportunities:
According to the United States Department of Labor, "Job prospects are excellent for Medical Assistants. Employment is projected to grow much faster than average, ranking them among the fastest growing occupations over the 2006-16 decade. Job opportunities should be excellent, particularly for those with formal training. Most work in doctors offices, hospitals, clinics or other health care settings. They often assist with administrative tasks and minor procedures to keep the doctor's offices and health care facilities running smoothly. Helping to drive job growth is the increasing number of group practices, clinics, and other health care facilities that need a high proportion of support personnel, particularly medical assistants who can handle both administrative and clinical duties. In addition, medical assistants work primarily in outpatient settings, a rapidly growing sector of the health care industry. Medical Assistants are projected to account for a very large number of new jobs, and many other opportunities will come from the need to replace workers leaving the occupation and those with formal training or experience should have the best job opportunities!"
