those working in healthcare- bobs, lawren, kac, etc

So I think I want to make a career change.  I've been thinking about it for a while, job shadowed, researched degree programs, etc.  I've applied to several office jobs (registrar, etc) to perhaps get my foot in the door, and to work in a health care setting while I am waiting to begin school and hopefully while I take some prereq's.  I am not really having any luck, one because most of these things you just have to apply on the website, so it just gets pushed aside, and two, I have no prior related experience.  I'm trying to play up my customer service, admin. office skills, and project management, but I just wondered if any of you might have some pointers as to how to jump into this field from something very different?  I plan on taking med. terminology and other prereq's soon, but until then, I was wondering what I could change on my resume?

  • When I first glanced at this I thought it said Boobs. Teehee.

    For me I got lucky, a lady that went to church with me was an office manager in a Doctors office and offered me a job. So a lot of it has to do with who you know. Where are do you live in again?

    I'm really interested in medical imaging- I am considering the Cardiovascular Tech. program at cpcc, or a Radiology program.  It stinks because I'll have to wait until 2011, but I plan on working and taking prereq's in the mean time.
