Girl you will love being an MA everyone is different but I love being an MA but a lot of us will usually turn to be a RN but I’m going back to school to be an RT I feel being an MA helps so much to grow later!!! My favorite to work in is pediatrics it’s definitely not for the weak but seeing those baby faces and watching them grow was really a reward!! Good luck wishing you nothing but the best ♥️

I thought that if i become an RN, i would be set, but the reality is being an MA, i feel is perfect for me. I started my MA journey in 2014 by earning a Diploma. Phlebotomy was also a part of the program. i loved it. I was successful, then i hit an obstacle. In January 2023, I decided to make a comeback to the MA scene and now i am working on my associate degree in medical assistant. I plan to get my CCMA cert and CPT cert (Phlebotomy). The object is to add different things to my MA resume to create several paths.

You have help with your kids. That’s a good thing; I’m going back to school with no help with my son at all. Hopefully I’ll be going back in February.

We’re going to be done around the same time even though my program is a year long! 😅😅😂 I can’t wait though. I just finished my spring semester today and then summer term starts in a week and then I’m finished. We’re almost to the finish line!!

@@erincostello101 That just seems more like a preference thing. There should be no reason to completely disregard an RMA when it’s a nationally recognized certification. It could be the area. For instance, I live in Los Angeles and as long as you have a certification you’re good. It just has to be by a well known national certifying agency, so they say CMA, RMA, CCMA and sometimes list the agencies next to them in the job description because there are different type of agencies that certify for the CCMA and the CMA and they’re not the ones you think (NHA and AAMA), but by a completely different agency all together, which wouldn’t be good.

hey girlie 💕 i say js jump right in! & that’s to whatever you want to do in life. find a school that works for YOU. meaning if you want to go in person, find a school that offers that. if you want to go online, find a school that offers that. i am a visual learner so i js knew i needed to be in an MA person that offered school in person. know your end goal, memorize it, write it down and think of that and reflect on it when you lose focus or you have challenging moments during your program.
