Paramedical Careers

Advertisements

Paramedical professionals supplement the work of doctors in specialized areas for facilitating diagnosis, treatment or therapy. The charm of the medical profession, of being able to alleviate suffering, has always enthused young people. However, the bottle neck in medical college admissions arising out of a disproportionate demand of seats, as well as rigorous and long medical education has attracted attention to paramedical careers. Paramedics work in varied specialized fields with extremely sophisticated equipments and assist medical practitioners in their work by carrying out diagnostic investigations.

Paramedical careers:
• Nursing
• Medical technology
• Physical and occupational therapy
• Optometry
• Orthotic and prosthetic technology
• Speech therapy and pharmacy
• Medical technology
• Healthcare and hospital management
• Forensic medicine

Entry and Career progression:

Professionals training for paramedical jobs extend on an average for three years followed by short internship. Paramedical professionals work in hospitals, clinics, and rehabilitation centers or are in private practice. Professional growth depends on training and practice. Paramedical staffs are next in hierarchy to doctors in professional terms. They find employment in hospitals, clinics, medical colleges, government hospitals, pharmaceutical firms, and old age trauma centers etc.

Aptitudes, Interests and Personal Qualities:

Paramedical support is invaluable for medical professionals. Their work is challenging as it requires them to carry out work as prescribed by medical practitioners as well as keep the patient satisfied and confident of the treatment he is receiving. The work requires a scientific bent of mind, liking for machines and technical equipment and the ability to plan, organize, keep schedules and satisfy patients. Paramedics must be able to take orders from superiors and assist them by reporting observations they make with patients. The reputation of doctors, the treatment of the patients and overall the service a hospital can provide depends largely on the paramedical staff.
