Health care is among the fastest-growing areas of employment in America—and while the opportunities are great, there is also plenty of job competition.

It features an overview of the health care field as well as detailed guidance concerning three specific jobs: medical assistant, health information management technician, and physical therapy assistant. Each episode covers what a particular job requires, who it would likely appeal to, and what it offers in terms of salary, long-term career prospects, and personal rewards. Viewable/printable instructor’s guides containing additional material—including student activities, discussion questions, vocabulary terms, and fast facts—are available online.
