CMA Jobs in Fairfield, CT

A Certified Medical Assistant (CMA) plays a critical role in the nursing industry by providing both clinical and administrative assistance to healthcare professionals. They perform a wide range of tasks including recording patient history, preparing patients for examinations, drawing blood, administering medications, and ensuring the cleanliness of examination rooms. In addition, they handle administrative tasks such as scheduling appointments, managing patient records, and billing. For this reason, they are indispensable in ensuring the smooth running of healthcare facilities like hospitals and clinics.

To become a CMA, one must have graduated from an accredited medical assisting program, passed the CMA Certification Examination, and maintain their certification with continuing education. Important skills for a CMA include strong communication and interpersonal skills, attention to detail, technical skills, and a good understanding of medical terminology. Prior to becoming a CMA, an individual might have roles such as a medical secretary, a nursing assistant, or a phlebotomist; these positions provide valuable experience in both the administrative and clinical aspects of healthcare.
