  • Essay / The Importance of Careers in Public Health - 1011

    Those considering this field should ensure they have the passion and drive to help others obtain the professional health care they need. From the article Public Health Administration I couldn't agree more with what they said; “Those who work in public health have the opportunity to improve the lives of many people. They may work for a government that ensures the health and safety of the population or they may work for a non-governmental organization and help improve the lives of many people through awareness and services” (“Public Health Administration” , 2016). I believe this career piqued my interest because I will be able to work in a medical office, and still in the medical field, helping others, but not interacting with patients one-on-one on a daily basis. I will be an excellent candidate to work as a medical administrator because I have good leadership qualities and am organized. However, I need to work on my communication skills, such as writing more effectively and public speaking, as I tend to get nervous when speaking to a large crowd. I am confident that UNCC's academic courses will prepare me for what lies ahead and lead me to a successful career in the medical field.
