This book offers an integrated approach for an integrated career! Ensure students' success with their mastery not only of all of the knowledge and skills that lead to CMA or RMA certification, but also the flexibility, versatility, teamwork, and professionalism in the workplace that are the hallmarks of rewarding careers as Medical Assistants. This new textbook uses a multidisciplinary, integrated approach to learning that truly reflects the real world in which MAs practice, whether they're focused on the 'front' or 'back' office. It includes structure and function and medical terminology coverage at the beginning of each body system chapter. It also contains individual chapters on pediatrics and geriatrics as well as bioethics and legal issues. Charting examples for many of the required skills highlight the importance of accurate documentation. It also includes extensive pedagogical tools.
