Transiting from a role as a healthcare and home companion to health information technology is an important change. Working in health care provides a solid understanding of medical, terminology, health career procedures,and patient care. Skills are highly transferable to HIT roles and have been tasked with managing and organizing healthcare data, records, and information systems. Gaining hands-on experience in health information with diverse backgrounds and a strong commitment to client support will doubtless contribute to success in the dynamic and evolving field.
