Someone who actually showed and talked about the job itself. Too many people think a day in the life of a medical assistant means they need to show everything other than the job. Your channel definitely deserves more attention! 👏🏼

[@chickwholuvsmusic]

This video actually helped me with 2 questions I got on my nursing quiz last night. With what is the NST and progesterone shot. And I gotta say being an MA first helps so MUCH with nursing school. Im scoring higher than most. Just sayin if youre thinking of going for it

[@kaylabeasley5886]

I am working on my RMA program right now, but the long term goal is to earn a BSN, so I'm so happy to hear you say that studying medical assisting and working as a medical assistant was beneficial to your nursing journey.

This is why I'm applying to be an MA while I'm doing my pre reqs for nursing!

OBGYN seems like such a fun specialty!

I’m working as an MA at an OB office too to get myself through sonography school, but it’s so interesting to see how similar/different things are between other offices.

[@user-zf4yz2iu9s]

how did you get accepted into the sonography program? my college said it’s the hardest program they have at the school 😔

[@camillemaestas2641]

@@user-zf4yz2iu9s I found a school that didn’t have a long waiting list and worked as an MA for awhile to get some experience in the medical field. I’m not sure how it works in other states but I had to take a test and score high enough and then I had to do an interview and they asked me why I wanted to be a sonographer and why I would be a good candidate for the program. Do your research and find out what each program is looking for and then from there you can start preparing, don’t get discouraged if it doesn’t happen on the first try a lot of people have to try a couple times before they get accepted. Hope this helps 😊

Hi. This is very helpful to see what a MA in OB/GYN office does. I like to know how you clear the tray after a procedure that has sharps (needle, or/and dermablade/ scalpel). My provider added the dermablade during the procedure after the tray has been prepared and didn't get a chance to tell us. I missed it when cleaning up and should have put it in the sharps container. How do you go through all the "trash" bound material in a tray after a procedure and check for / pull out sharps . The provider did check with us after the tray has been cleaned and asked about it though. Thanks

I think you can bridge from am LPN to an RN if that’s something you would want to do but I don’t think you can bridge from an MA program. That’s for my area at least it may be different for you. If you are planning on continuing I would keep that in mind!

Both MA and LPN can work at doctors’ offices, but MA’s can’t work inpatient as an LPN would. That is something I would have liked to know before getting into MA school but I love it regardless. But if you want to pursue a nursing career, I believe LPN would be the best option between the two, even though both help big time getting to know patient care and the field in general. Good luck!!
