Online Colleges for Health

We all know that doctors and nurses diagnose our illnesses and injuries and give us the treatment or medication to make us better. But if you're interested in health care, there are many careers to consider besides doctor or nurse. A clinical laboratory technician or technologist analyzes the specimens that a doctor sends to the lab. A medical records specialist is responsible for maintaining patient files. These files are often consulted and amended by physician assistants, who work with doctors and have important duties, including making diagnoses and performing some procedures like suturing. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) lists no less than 40 occupations under the heading of health care. Most of these occupations are highly in-demand: the BLS reports that the health care industry could add 3.2 million jobs by 2018, making it the fastest-growing labor sector in the U.S.
