What is the easiest medical career that receives the most money? |
I've heard becoming a pharmacist pays well but I'm not great at chemistry and my memory is horrible. I don't want to kill anybody. I'm not great with sticking people with needles either. Well for occupational therapy, there may not be a chemistry requirement but for the field itself, one will most likely need to lift patients or help them to stand or sit, if even during their hands-on clinical experience. And that is especially true for the physical therapy field. You are smart to know your limitations as I have difficulty with memory and chemistry myself. And just btw, a nurse practitioner is first a registered nurse (BSN) bachelor of science in nursing and then enters a master's degree program for nurse practitioner who can diagnose, treat and prescribe meds for patients under supervision of a medical doctor. However, if one has problems with memory, nursing (including nursing assistant which also involves a lot of lifting and positioning of patients) doesn't sound like the right field as you seem to already realize :) Perhaps you can think about a career with an administrative edge to it such as health information technology (medical records technician) which is typically an associate's degree while the 'health information administrator' (used to be referred to as 'medical records administrator') generally has a bachelor's degree. They don't really work with patients per se but deal with confidential information and perhaps other health care professionals and workers. Perhaps you can look into your local community college or state university. Source(s): For US colleges and universities (including community colleges): www.utexas.edu/world/univ For more general info on various careers: US occupational outlook handbook www.bls.gov/oco and can type into search 'health information technician' or whichever other job field piques one's interest. I think doctors mistress might be good for you. Just kidding-maybe you can sell pharmecudicals. Physical or Occupational Therapy may be an option. They require 4 year degrees. Unfortunately, you're going to need to take plenty of chemistry for any well-paying medical career. have you thought about being a nurse practicioner X-Ray Technician. cna |
