The Certified Clinical Medical Assistant Pathway introduces students to fundamental healthcare systems, essential anatomy and physiology, and medical terminology based on Greek and Latin root words. Students then transition to rigorous clinical preparation for the NHA CCMA exam, mastering vital signs, venipuncture, ECGs, laboratory testing, and medical office administration within strict ethical boundaries. The pathway can conclude with a healthcare specialist capstone that expands on medical law, electronic health records, and behavioral health to prepare students for diverse hospital and clinic settings.
