Clinical Medical Assistant

Program Description

The clinical medical assistant program prepares students to become proficient in clinical procedures normally performed in an ambulatory or outpatient care setting such as an urgent care or doctor’s office. Some of these clinical procedures include administering injections and medications, measuring and recording vital signs, administering EKGs, performing venipuncture (blood draws) and assisting the physician with physical exams. 

Upon successful completion of the clinical medical assistant program, students will receive a certificate of completion from the school. Students will then be eligible to sit for the national CCMA exam administered through National Healthcareer Association (NHA).
