Healthcare Jobs are Booming...
Dust off that resume: Healthcare jobs are booming
By Pat Forbis, CMT
"If you are among the thousands of medical transcriptionists who make job-related transitions each year, this may be a good time to explore new options. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, Education and health services are projected to grow faster -- 31.8 percent by 2012 -- and add more jobs than any other industry supersector. About one out of every four new jobs created in the U.S. economy will be in the healthcare and social assistance or private educational services sectors.
Healthcare and social assistance, including private hospitals, nursing and residential care facilities, and individual and family services, will grow by 32.4 percent and add 4.4 million new jobs. It is said that employment growth will be driven by increasing demand for healthcare and social assistance because of an aging population and longer life expectancies.
The growing needs of the healthcare documentation professions are apparent, many of which are perfectly suited for the skilled medical transcriptionist. With that in mind, you will need to be certain that your resume gets updated. Even if a change of employment isn’t in your immediate plans, it is a good idea to keep your resume current … just in case.
Not sure about how to sell your talent in today’s market? Help is as close as a Google search. In fact, an entry of “resume writing” on the search line will put more than 29 million opportunities for assistance at your fingertips.
Like almost everything else, writing one’s resume has new rules. Thanks to our fast-paced world, less is more when trying to capture the attention of a potential employer. Keep it to one page, if you want it to stand out from the rest. Today’s prospective employers are not going to invest their limited time to read anything longer than that. Bullets of brief action-driven statements are the best design. Paragraphs of detailed text are likely to be overlooked and are an invitation for the reader to move quickly to the next resume.
There is no longer interest in how you spend leisure time, the name of your elementary school, or long lists of personal friends you know will give you a glowing reference. Here are a few tips about what to do and what not to do.
DO
Place your name by itself at the top of the page
Include all the basic aspects of a resume:
Name and contact information
Career objective
Professional profile (optional)
Employment experience, with name and contact information of a former supervisor
Be grammatically correct
Be truthful, no exaggerating
Keep the design simple
Use action words but avoid repetition
Focus on the objective in all job descriptions and experiences
Proofread, proofread, proofread
DON’T
Lie or exaggerate
Include salary and benefits requirements
Include past salary and benefits information
Share personal information that is not job related
Use cute or complex layouts
Use brightly-colored stationery
Make typographical or grammatical errors
Misspell words
Rely on a spell checker to make your resume write/right/rite/Wright
Please keep in mind that your resume is not complete without a cover letter. The purpose of the cover letter is to introduce you and your resume to the prospective employer, and its importance cannot be overstated.
If your resume is successful, and you are invited to interview for the position you seek, a note of thanks is a must.
And even if you aren’t currently seeking a new job, it’s still a good idea to spend some time updating your resume because it never hurts to be prepared. With healthcare jobs continually on the rise, being prepared just might set you ahead of the pack."

A New Pedagogy for Medical Assistant Studies
A New Pedagogy Model for Medical Assistant Studies
According to the Wikimedia Foundation, "Pedagogy is the art or science of teaching. The Latin-derived word for pedagogy, education, is much more widely used, and often the two are used interchangeably. Pedagogy is also sometimes referred to as the correct use of teaching strategies (see instructional theory). For example, Brazilian Paulo Freire, one of the most influential educators of the 20th century, referred to his method of teaching adults as "critical pedagogy". In correlation with those teaching strategies the instructor's own philosophical beliefs of teaching are harbored and governed by the pupil's background knowledge and experiences, personal situations and environment as well as learning goals set by the student as well as the teacher.
Now with the advent of the internet and innovative technology distance education will likely become the most common method of education for the next generation of Medical Assistants. With the development of our distance education program St. Augustine Medical Assistant School continues to lead the way in high quality innovative Medical Assistant education and a new pedagogy model.
Instructors who aggree with this teaching philosophy and are interested in joining our faculty are encouraged to send their resume and CV to us at: administration@medassistant.org.Faculty and staff are compensated according to their educational background and past experience.

Considerations in Distance Education for the Medical Assistant Instructor
by: Dr. Mark Stout
Medical Assistant distance education is emerging to meet the demands of a new generation of students in the twenty first century. St. Augustine Medical Assistant School distance education program for medical assistant presents a good model for this integration of technology with medical assistant education. Distance education, particularly in its most recent form, online education, is being integrated into even the most cautious and conservative of educational institutions. Yet the impact of these alternative forms of teaching and learning on students, faculty, and institutions has yet to be broadly or deeply studied. New models such as that at St. Augustine Medical Assistant School are immerging. St. Augustine Medical Assistant School is available at: www.medassistant.org
Distance education is not new, and can be traced as far back as the first century. The Apostle Paul wrote to the early Christian churches, instructing them from a distance (even when he was under 'house arrest' in Rome). This was probably the first type of 'correspondence course', which was the only method of learning at a distance until the advent of the telephone. Today, distance education and in particular online medical assistant instruction calls upon an impressive range of technologies to enable medical assistant instructor and the medical assistant student who are separated by distance to communicate with each other either in real time (synchronous) or delayed time (asynchronous). Currently and asynchronous model used at St. Augustine Medical Assistant School to instruct medical assistant students. This has proven to be a very effective model however the medical assistant program is currently investigating the benefits of synchronous online medical assistant instruction and the benefits it may have for the medical assistant student.
Medical Assistant distance learning epitomizes the move away from institute based learning to a more direct, student centered approach. As a concept, distance learning has existed for over a century, notably in the form of paper based correspondence courses including the less formal correspondence education for medical assistants. Now however, distance education is depending increasingly upon technology for its success and technological innovations ensure that distance learning for the medical assistant continues to evolve and grow as a valid and potent force in all forms of education for the medical assistant.
The task of the medical assistant distance educator is therefore to obviate these problems as much as possible by mixing and matching techniques, creating and maintaining a stimulating environment, and offering opportunities for medical assistant students to communicate with each other and with the medical assistant teaching staff on a regular basis. The medical assistant educators will also need to change their traditional role as well. Many remote medical assistant students need a great deal of social support, and medical assistant distance educators may find themselves spending more time offering one-to-one tutorials and less time lecturing. St. Augustine Medical Assistant School at www.MedicalAssistant.us is leading today’s technology in medical assistant education.

Medical Assistant distance education is emerging to meet the demands of a new generation of students in the twenty first century. St. Augustine Medical Assistant School distance education program for medical assistant presents a good model for this integration of technology with medical assistant education. Distance education, particularly in its most recent form, online education, is being integrated into even the most cautious and conservative of educational institutions. Yet the impact of these alternative forms of teaching and learning on students, faculty, and institutions has yet to be broadly or deeply studied. New models such as that at St. Augustine Medical Assistant School are immerging. St. Augustine Medical Assistant School is available at: www.medassistant.org
Distance education is not new, and can be traced as far back as the first century. The Apostle Paul wrote to the early Christian churches, instructing them from a distance (even when he was under 'house arrest' in Rome). This was probably the first type of 'correspondence course', which was the only method of learning at a distance until the advent of the telephone. Today, distance education and in particular online medical assistant instruction calls upon an impressive range of technologies to enable medical assistant instructor and the medical assistant student who are separated by distance to communicate with each other either in real time (synchronous) or delayed time (asynchronous). Currently and asynchronous model used at St. Augustine Medical Assistant School to instruct medical assistant students. This has proven to be a very effective model however the medical assistant program is currently investigating the benefits of synchronous online medical assistant instruction and the benefits it may have for the medical assistant student.
Medical Assistant distance learning epitomizes the move away from institute based learning to a more direct, student centered approach. As a concept, distance learning has existed for over a century, notably in the form of paper based correspondence courses including the less formal correspondence education for medical assistants. Now however, distance education is depending increasingly upon technology for its success and technological innovations ensure that distance learning for the medical assistant continues to evolve and grow as a valid and potent force in all forms of education for the medical assistant.
The task of the medical assistant distance educator is therefore to obviate these problems as much as possible by mixing and matching techniques, creating and maintaining a stimulating environment, and offering opportunities for medical assistant students to communicate with each other and with the medical assistant teaching staff on a regular basis. The medical assistant educators will also need to change their traditional role as well. Many remote medical assistant students need a great deal of social support, and medical assistant distance educators may find themselves spending more time offering one-to-one tutorials and less time lecturing.
