Medical & Dental Programs
Medical Assisting
Medical assistants are a vital part of any healthcare office, completing administrative and clinical tasks in the offices of physicians, hospitals, and other healthcare facilities. A medical assistant may take a patient’s vital signs, record a patient’s history and personal information, and schedule appointments. Learn more about the Medical Assisting program in Mesa.
Dental Assisting
Dental assistants help keep a dental office running smoothly by assisting patients, dentists and dental hygienists with the routine tasks associated with oral health. Daily duties may include patient care, recordkeeping, and appointment scheduling. Our Dental Assisting program in Mesa helps prepare you for your new career as a dental assistant.
Pharmacy Technology
Do you like working with the public? Are you detail oriented? While becoming a pharmacist can take years of specialized training, becoming a pharmacy technician is a much faster investment, with plenty of benefits. Pharmacy technicians help pharmacists dispense prescription medication to customers or health professionals. They may work in retail pharmacies or in healthcare facilities with in-house pharmacies. Our Pharmacy Technology program in Mesa helps prepare you for this role in as few as 9 months.
Associate Degree in Nursing
Registered nurses (RNs) provide and coordinate patient care, educate patients and the public about various health conditions, and provide advice and emotional support to patients and their families. Carrington College’s Associate Degree in Nursing program in Mesa helps prepare you for RN licensure.
Dental Hygiene
Dental hygienists are often the face of a dental practice, handling the majority of patient care in a routine, preventive visit. Dental hygienists remove tartar and plaque during a dental cleaning, apply treatments such as fluoride and sealants, and educate patients about oral hygiene techniques, such as how to brush and floss correctly. Our Dental Hygiene program in Mesa uses hands-on instruction to help you prepare for this important job.Â
Medical Billing and Coding
Patients may know that medical records are kept electronically, but they may not realize it takes specialized skills to make sure those records are correct. Medical billing and coding professionals conduct two important roles in the administrative side of healthcare. Medical billers make sure physicians are paid by insurance providers for the services they offer. Medical coders help translate medical tasks into a standardized language, or code, so they can be understood by a variety of providers and payors. Carrington’s Medical Billing and Coding program in Mesa helps prepare you to work in this vital field.
*This program is available in a Blended Online Format.
Physical Therapy Technology
A Physical Therapy Aide also helps physical therapists care for those who are struggling with mobility. PT aides perform a variety of tasks that help keep the office running smoothly. Although PT aides are supervised by physical therapists, they might collaborate with therapist assistants. Physical therapy aides execute operational activities that help keep the office running efficiently. But their interaction with patients may be limited to scheduling appointments and bringing patients in and out of the therapy areas. Prepare for a career in physical therapy in as few as 9 months with our Physical Therapy Technology program in Mesa.
Veterinary Programs
Veterinary Assisting
Veterinary assistants help care for animals, helping veterinarians and veterinary technicians. They may bathe or feed animals, help with examinations, and provide first aid. Veterinary assistants care for animals large and small, from dogs and cats to rabbits to horses, depending on the setting in which they work. Prepare for a career in veterinary medicine in as few as 9 months with our Veterinary Assisting program in Mesa.
