Work. School. Clinical.  

Clinical. School. Work.  

In the last semester for Northeastern Technical College Medical Assistant students, the last semester is hectic as students, from adult teens to 40s, juggle family and responsibilities weaving school into the mix.  

NETC Medical Assistant student Nastylija Johns, 27, of Dillon works at an OBGYN office associated with McLeod Health but during clinical work, Johns spends her hours at McLeod Family Medicine in Marion.

The Marion office is shifting adding a new nurse practitioner, she said.  

“Since she’s started, she’s bringing in new patients,” Johns said.  

Prior, it seemed to Johns the regular clientele was “mostly older patients with the occasional young patient,” Johns said.

Growth is expected as the Baby Boomer Generation (born 1946-64) are retired or entering retirement age creating a health care demand while the United State's working age population shrinks.

Labor studies have shown a need for about 400,000 home health care providers by 2025 and 200,000 new nurses annually until 2026 to replace those retiring. 

Medical Assistants are unlicensed professionals who physicians can delegate tasks as well as coordinate patient scheduling and manage patient records. 

Students who begin the NETC Medical Assistant Program typically complete the program with certifications for Certified Nursing Assistant, Phlebotomy, and Medical Assistant. 



To sign up for the medical assistant program, students must:

• Complete 22 credits with a minimum grade of average of 2.0 in all 22 credits for Nurse Preparatory Certificate program. 

• Submit results of annual tuberculin skin test (TST) and current Basic Life Support—Provider (BLS) by the American Heart Association.  

• Submit information and fees for background checks and toxicology screenings.
