Welcome to care assistant training Module 1
As a health care assistant, no experience is needed to get an entry-level job at a hospital or other clinical practice facility. In this industry, the phrase no experience is slightly misleading, as you get training and experience as part of an education program that you must complete to work as a healthcare assistant. These types of entry-level jobs are common among students who want to work in their community to gain experience providing medical care to patients before moving on to another position. As an entry-level healthcare assistant, you may lift up to 30 pounds, stand and walk for extended periods, or kneel as required for patient care, so physical fitness is important.
