We're Getting Pinned!

A Medical Assistant pinning ceremony marking the conclusion of our classroom education will be held for Matthew and me on Wednesday, November 5, 2008.

On Monday, November 10th, I will begin my required 180 hour internship at a large multi-physician medical facility that sees 60-80 adult patients per day. (Matthew's internship site has been selected but not yet confirmed.)

At the successful conclusion of our internships, Matthew and I will receive certificates officially graduating us from the program.

In January 2009 I will sit for a certification exam that will allow me to include the credentials "CMA" (Certified Medical Assistant) after my name. (The certificate we receive at the end of the program is more like a diploma because it just means we successfully completed it.)

So, yeah, I'm totally GEEEEEEKED!
