Pima Medical Institute-Tucson issued the following announcement on Aug. 19.
Pima Medical Institute recently hosted its first campus-wide open house event since the
COVID-19 pandemic began. Guests, following all CDC regulations, toured campuses and saw lab classrooms where students receive hands-on experience. The open house also provided an opportunity for prospective students to speak to those currently enrolled, as well as instructors.
Pima Medical Institute’s open house showcased how well equipped the school’s medical labs are and how closely training emulates working in the field. Especially now, the need for qualified healthcare professionals is rising. Preparing graduates to enter the workforce, ready to hit the ground running is essential.
Michael Aguinaga is a medical assistant student at the Pima Medical Phoenix Campus. He said, “It made me want to go into healthcare more because I knew there would be a shortage of help in the hospitals and clinics.”
For those who may be nervous about taking the first step toward a career in healthcare, the open house provided an opportunity to talk to current students who share similar life experiences. Faculty and staff are on hand to provide additional information about programs and financial aid and student services advisers are prepared to answer the detailed questions a new student may have about how to make school work for them.
Campuses that participated in the open house included: Albuquerque, New Mexico; Chula Vista and San Marcos, California; Colorado Springs, Aurora and Denver, Colorado; El Paso, Houston and San Antonio, Texas; Tucson, Mesa, East Valley and Phoenix, Arizona; Las Vegas, Nevada; Renton and Seattle, Washington.
Pima Medical Institute offers certificate, associate, bachelor’s and master’s degree programs—all in the healthcare field. It also boasts a robust online learning division. Programs focus on medical, dental and veterinary careers.
If you missed the Open House, it’s not too late to get started.
