I am so happy I searched for healthcare administration content. I'm a lvn with a bachelor's in healthcare administration. Starting a masters soon. Started following you, can't wait to get all of your gems. The reason I wanted this degree is because change is made from the top.
Hi. I am also an LVN and in school to get my Bachelor’s in healthcare administration. Any advise? How is the job opportunities? I’m very excited to make this pivot but not sure how it’s gonna work out
Hi Mikyla, thank you for watching. There are job opportunities but I highly suggest you research and apply to the various positions. Also, working with a recruiter can help streamline your job hunting process. All the best!
Hi Wanna, thanks for watching and your kind words! All the best in your journey!
This video was so helpful!
Starting my job in health admin next week then starting my associates for Health Care admin next month. So greatful for your guidance!
@@forhealthscholars I’m switching my major from nursing I passed my entrance exam with a 84% and interview , I been leaning towards healthcare administration I’ve been seeing people posting they are unable to find employment that’s what scares me especially because my husband is stationed in a small country town .
Babyyyyyy you are a walking testimony. God has such a calling on your life. This video was meant for me. Thank you for this. I’m a single mom and was asking God for direction and your video popped up. Blessings to you👑👑👑👑 God told you your path from young and the vision was there. What’s for you is meant for YOU
So grateful for you and the information you’re sharing. I’m considering a career transition into healthcare administration and trying to learn everything I can. So glad I found your channel. 😊
Wow! I truly believe God has led me here. I have a Bachelor's in Pharmacology but I plan to get my masters in HA or Healthcare Management. I've always believed that if you want there to be a change, you've got to get to the top and make that change yourself and that's exactly what you did with your mom. I admire your spirit and I tap from your grace!
Much love from Nigeria! May we one day change Nigeria for the better!
God Bless You and thank you for watching!
The story is not too long, you daddy is really a classic Nigerian dad, and the Nigerian in you is loud. Very insightful and educative.
Thanks!
Thank you for sharing your story and advice. I have recently returned to college to get into health management. Your videos are incredibly insightful and inspiring. Cheers!
Thank you so much. I will be starting my master's in health administration this spring. You have been my motiviator.
Hi @ladycash4675 this is exciting news 🎉 I’m happy my videos have been able to help you in your academic journey! All the best!
I came across your channel just now, very inspiring and educative and this made me hit the subscription button immediately. This is what I've been looking for. Also I''m so sorry for your loss. May God give you and the entire family the heart to bear your loss
I cried during you story about your mom ❤ also gave me a different perspective of what i thought healthcare admin entails
Hi Hannah, thank you watching. I’m happy my story has encouraged you. All the best!
I love her stories and sharing, thank you.
Hi Ryan thank you for watching ☺️
Your story really inspired me…been searching for this course for a while, and I’m motivated wt ur story.
I just came across this video, thank you very much!! I really appreciate this 🙏
Thank you so much for posting this. This is my reminder from God to keep going with my studies.💜
Hi Rachel, you’re welcome and thanks for watching. I am happy my video has encouraged you to keep forging ahead!
I would also say increasing staffing and providing a healthy environment for all clinical & non-clinical personnel to be able to feel appreciated for their service and contribution, during healthcare daily operations is a must. this process will further provide proper incentives for personnel to stay in the field, which is the number 1 concern for many allied healthcare personnel. The pay and the time is the issue as to why many health care employees are suffering from burnout. further , also considering the need to develope a proper form of scheduling for personnel to ensure adequate nursing services, while increasing patient succes rates, and removing patients off of ventilators, assistant breathing devices and reducing same diagnosis readmisson cases.
I agree!
Loved every bit of this conversation! Thank you for sharing your story! Congratulations ❤
Thank you for watching! I’m happy to hear you enjoyed my story!
I love your energy! I just started my MBA recently and I work in managed care.
Hi, thank you for watching. All the best!
My name is Jevonne, I’m currently a senior Pursuing my Bachelors in Finance with a Minor in Businesses Administration and management. After graduating I want to Obtain my Masters in Healthcare Administration so I truly appreciate this video. It helped me to solidify my decision of furthering my Career in the healthcare field.
Hi Jevonne, thanks for watching and for your kind words! All the best in your career journey!
Hi Dr., That part where you said you have a Nigerian dad and Nigerians only recognise 4 occupations, is so true.
For instance, i am a Nigerian too, and my parents did want me to be a Lawyer (at the time I was going to college, I didn't know what i wanted to study). So I did study Law. Graduated, got called to the bar, and now that I want to apply for Masters, my father doesn't want me to study any other profession.
I recommended that I want to study nursing, my father was livid (saying he won't waste his resources on me because I'm lazy, lol 😂), while my mom is more concerned about how people would address me for being a nurse.
I don't even know what reaction I'd get if I tell them that I'd love to try Health Administration, lol. It's really crazy how Nigerian parents can be.
I really do need your advice on the career path I should take: I love Law (don't get me wrong) but it's not something I'd practice (unless it's on health law). As for nursing, it is a lot of stress and I don't know if I can cope with stress well. Health Administration is also something I'm looking at but I don't know how to break the news to my fam.
Hi Carey, thank you for watching. I recommend you do what you will enjoy. Sometimes we have to make the leap and take an alternate path before others understand. Eventually they will get it. All the best!
Thank youuuuu so much. I'm currently a executive assistant in peds. Working on my bachelor's in health science with 10 yrs experience. This is just what I needed to hear and see.
Honestly happy I came across your video❤, really help confirm why I’m pursing my degree in Health Administration.
Hi, I am happy to hear my videos have been helpful! All the best!

Thanks for watching Espehni!
Truly Inspiring❤
Thank you!
Working as a “consultant” in healthcare for years… you see a lot… a lot of hard working people in difficult conditions; it’s a lot to take in. And, the process of change management in deeply personal realities and
in areas real need and the work can NOT stop. It’s very real and affects all manners of work, and healthcare affects community in multiple streams of efforts and effects.
I agree, this in why I am on the mission to equip health scholars so that one day we can see/experience equitable changes in the healthcare space!
Thanks for posting , I will be in school in December trying to get my associates in healthcare admin first then get the bachelors❤
I am so glad it was helpful!
Thank you for this video as I'm looking into a Masters of Healthcare administration or Organizational leadership.
This is great news! I’m wishing you all the best!
I’m actually going to college for health services administration I’m actually excited to learn more so definitely I subscribed
Hi Kaymilly, thank you for subscribing ☺️
Great story 💯🏅 great journey
Thank you!
I loved this whole video from beginning to end. It’s definitely giving “follow your passion” when you were discussing choosing your path of study. Leadership is about service and you seem like you are an ideal candidate. It makes me so happy to see healthcare leaders who have the heart that you do. I have a BS in Psych and will be starting my MHA in the fall. Definitely very excited about this journey. I hope to see more content from you soon!
Hi @danibeverly85 thank you for your kind words! I am wishing you all the best on your MHA journey!
What about post graduate certificate of health care administration management nursing leader Vs post graduate diploma in gerontology nursing which is best after bsc nursing please tell
Masters in Healthcare Administration. Finishing up my Doctorate in healthcare management. I have 20 years as a Respiratory Therapist. Looking for the right position. Thanks for your videos.
Thank you for watching!
I am very sorry about the loss of your mom ❤
Your "why" for venturing into Healthcare Administration is noble. Mine is similar in that I am tired of poor care and bad attitides in healthcare. I actually got into healthcare with divine intervention from God. I was going to be a Community Social Worker at the end of my Bachelor's Degree. My first intership fell through and led me into healthcare. Even my volunteer work was supposed to be in the community and guess what, they put me working their hospital educational program for single mothers. Led me to 12 years now in healthcare. I wondered upon your videos...not by accident I am sure...it is a God thing. You see I somewhat feel inferior to nursing healthcare administration candidates. I was once a pre-nursing student college drop-out, when I became a mother and a wife very early. I was so stretched thin at the time I stained my bachelor's transcript with improperly quitting and it took me several years before I went back with a new wind from God. I switched majors, leaving the stains on my transcript. However, my grades were 👆🏾 up from there. I still wanted to stay away from healthcare. I was thinking nursing was the main thing to be in healthcare. God showed me different from all the healthcare experience I have gained in internship, volunteer work, and my career thus far. I am a social worker in healthcare. From this I gained a passion to lead in this field because I often am the problem solver, the one the patient and family feels comfortable sharing a grievance or problem with, and the one who respects and supports all my colleagues from the lowest to highest paid positions. I genuinely see the equal value they all have and treat them as such. My concern has been seeing nurses promoted more than non-nursing into healthcare leadership. Despite me being a licensed professional myself, that and my age concern me. I already crossed the 40 threshold. Nevertheless, I have done well with my MBA, GPA is great. I graduate in about 3 weeks. My concentration is Healthcare Adminstration, and I am seeking out certifications to set myself apart. I am appreciating your content thus far. It has gotten me out of my feelings and back into action. God bless you!
Hi Faith, thank you so much for your kind words. I am wishing you all the best in your healthcare admin. career!
Thank you for sharing, I currently have 5 semesters left to complete my bachelors in healthcare management, I’m so excited
Hi Sandra, I’m excited for you and wishing you all the best as you work toward graduation ☺️
Great. Yet another lazy “…” whom gets to tell us what to do, and has no clue what healthcare even is.
So brave! Soo stunning! A black female with zero clinical exp put into admin above soo many who know more because they are female and black. Never seen that before. “Leadership” lol. What do you expect to bring to the table to “lead”? This is why Imposter Syndrome is a thing.
Im so glad, that i stumbled across your channel. I've always advocated for one of my Aunts for at least 5 years until she recently passed away in January 2024. Im getting my Bachelors of Healthcare Administration since November 2023. So far it has been a great experience.
Thank you for watching my video! All the best in your career endeavors!
Thank you for your advice great video
You are so welcome!
First and foremost, sorry for your loss and condolences to you and your family. Secondly, I am a CNA/PCT. I am in the Bachelors degree in Health Services Management with a minor in Business Administration. After, I will pursue a Masters in Healthcare Administration. I am also from Brooklyn NY. I love this video and I did subscribe to the channel
Hi Frankie, thank you for your kind words. Welcome to the community!
This video means so much to me, ❤.
Hi, I’m happy you found my story to be helpful. All the best!
Thank you for your story! I was supposed to hear your story. You shared 3 things that I believe God may be confirming for me in the spirit. I am proud of you for advocating for your mom, God's hand is on you and his favor is on your life. We have our ideas of what we want our lives to be, but God has his own. His spirit lives in you and you were obedient to the Holy spirit and by doing this your life is full and abundant. I want to offer my condolences for the loss of your mother, I know this was years ago but it you only get one mother, it sounds like you had a good one. I am 38 years old, Married with four children. I am just now attempting to earn a college degree; my oldest daughter and I started our first day of college together on the same day. She is at a university, and I am online enrolled at a community college. I have worked as a Medical Assistant for 17 years and have been blessed to have been taught by some of the best physicians and nurses in Indianapolis. I frequently find myself orienting and teaching nurses how to their job duties. I am well-seasoned with a passion to make a difference but do not have the degree there is no growth opportunity for me. You are absolutely right; I will need to earn a master's degree. Prior to watching this video, I was thinking bachelor's, but I know now I am going higher. I am enrolled as a pre nursing student because that's what the advisor selected for me, I have no interest in being a nurse, it's a logical choice since I know the material. But my passion is making a difference by identifying what's broken, developing a system, and implementing it to see progress made. Thank you for your story, it was motivating and lined up with what I already consulting with God about. I wish you well!
Hi Nicole, thank you for your heartfelt comment. I am happy my video has empowered you to move forward in a healthcare administration career. All the best in your journey!
your channel has inspired me to sign up to complete my degree
Hi… this is amazing news! I’m happy my videos are helpful. All the best in your academic journey!
Very helpful thank you 🙏🏽
You’re welcome 😊
Thank you for this video it is very inspiring and informative. I am beginning my application for MHA program. I have 14 years of experience and currently working as a Registered Medical Assistant. I finished my bachelor in Healthcare Administration in 2019 with hopes of getting into a accelerated nursing program.
I competed most of my prerequisites for the ABSN program. I was inpatient working as a Nurse tech with 2 degrees Medical Assistant Management and now a bachelors degree. I said nope I have to get out of here and work outpatient. I started working with these two managers that had no leadership skills the office was a mess the doctors spoke down to us etc. I said I can do your job and I know I can! Fast forward Covid then another baby I got my Health Information Management Associate degree to gain more of the coding and billing side. I had my daughter and once I was ready to begin work it has been hard to find a management position or something related to leadership such as you said they want a Masters! I love patient care I want to advocated, lead, train mentor create police's amend then etc. I was on a committee while being a nurse tech and it changed my whole outlook on the administrative part of healthcare.
Any tips on getting out of the MA role to leadership? What to look for and what not?!
Sorry for the long comment and I hope you read it. 😊
Hi Danielle, Thanks for watching and it is a pleasure meeting you! I appreciate your kind words. I recommend you try to explore entry-level healthcare administration jobs. These jobs help you gain experience and prepare you for leadership promotion. Check out my video on entry-level healthcare administration jobs to learn more. All the best!
Thank you for sharing your story and your passion for your career ❤ definitely subscribing!
Thank you Angel!
I love your story.
Thank you and welcome to the For Health Scholars community!
Great testimony sis. I’m currently getting my bachelors in healthcare management
Thank you Elwood! All the best in completing your degree
@@forhealthscholars thank you so much
Great content!!! I'm working now as a director of accounting for a healthcare facility. I may go back to school for another degree in Healthcare Administration.
Hi, thanks for watching and all the best!
Good story advocating for ur mother I bet that scared them had the big boss come in straight shook I’m thinking about going to school for this I advocate for myself and others when needed in healthcare it’s important that a person treats and respects a person as they want too and if not you got a boss that got a boss and those big dogs don’t like when they employees are giving trouble great story
Hi Danielle, thank you for your kinds words! All the best!
Thank you for your valuable testimony. Could you share more about the program abroad in London?
Hi Freddie, thanks for watching! Check out CIEE for info on study abroad programs in London
I am very interested in wanting to start the Healthcare management program. I am starting school all over in my 30s. I have a masters in Adult Education and working for the govt but wanting to get into medical someway. Thanks for the inspiration.
Hi James, thanks for watching. I’m happy to hear that this video was able to provide you with great clarity. All the best!
Hey I loved your story about your mom❤ this is exactly the same way I am about mine lol😂.
I am a recent grad with a B.S in health sciences and I am having trouble finding an entry level position that makes a decent amount of money. I have administrative experience and I feel like I’m settling when it comes to working in health admin because all the jobs I’m seeing don’t even require a degree.
Hi Jade! Thanks for watching and welcome to the channel! I’m happy to hear you can relate to my story. In regards to finding a entry level position, it takes time, patience and the right strategy. In your case, I recommend you work with a recruiter. Recruiters can be helpful. Also, I have a course titled From Healthcare Graduate to Hired. In this course, I provide strategies that are not talked about on how to get hired. Check out the course here: bit.ly/3ml7SQy all the best!
I am working on tranisitioning into the health OSHA side of healthcare, where my years of service as a Safety Director can be utilized in a higher magnitude, with Incident/Crisis & Disaster management training to revolutionize the way in which the hospital infrastructure responds in times of Crisis. The best way would be through change in having a more patient centered environement , which is where you can truly see a shift in the culture within the healthcare industry. HCAPS are a great stride to have but it is only as good as actually putting the patients first. I would also go further to say that the ability to enhance inpatient turnover, with a higher quality of diagnosis verification, Quality of service, Quality of accurate bedside manner can increase the healing ratio depending on diagnosis for many in patients, all while reducing the number of inpatient exposure to infection and bacteria. Higher quality of nursing services and ensuring proper turning and re-positioning to the those patients unable to do so on their own. This process will also reduce the number of bedsore cases all while preventing dehiscence or breakdown of the patients skin or bedsore ulceration further causing the need of woundcare services.
Thanks for the tips Steve!
it is very attainable. thank you so much for this, my journey just getting started but been in healthcare 10 years!
Hi Simonne, you’re welcome & thank you for watching my videos. All the best in your journey!
Very helpful
Thank you for watching!
impressive
Thanks for watching!
I just got my masters in healthcare management but still seems challenging to find a career 😢 hoping your videos find me a excellent career
Hi Nic… Congratulations on earning your master degree. The industry is bit rough right now but I suggest you look for fellowships to apply to. Also, networking in the industry can help. Check out my videos: how to acquire healthcare fellowships and how to work with healthcare recruiters. Both videos are can be helpful to you in your job search. All the best!
No it’s not. You may have to relocate to a different state/city for the jobs. Look deeper and it will show. Did you try to take advantage of remote internships? Or your internships to learn everything possible? Try volunteering. The experience do matter, you may have to bounce around in other healthcare roles for a while then get a possible promotion to move up to a leadership position then try healthcare manager roles. Try some of the HIM jobs.
Thank you for sharing your story, the visit with the CEO on the elevator was a real God moment
Yes it was! Thank you so much for watching!
Thank you for sharing your story! I’m 23 and I’m wrapping up a dual masters in public health and public admin. I’ve always been big on health policy, minority health, and HIV but I see myself taking a pit stop at hospital admin because policy doesn’t bring about the immediate changes I want to see in our healthcare system. I hope to start the DrPH Fall 2025 and continue to work in the policy/regulatory space full time to fund my degree. I’d love to hear any advice you could give younger Black women who are navigating these spaces and have their race/gender/age working against them despite their experience.
Hi congratulations in advance for completing your degree program. Your question is great and I will record a video to personally to share my thoughts. Stay tuned for the video ☺️
@@forhealthscholars can’t wait!! Thank you for your help and support💗
Wow! C’mon God really doesn’t play about His children 👏🏽👏🏽
🙌🏾 Thank you for watching 🤗
This was good
Hi Catrina, Thank you for watching!
Wow meeting the ceo of the hospital because he took an alternative elevator! That can ONLY be God!!
This story is amazing. I would love to connect with you. I’m a nurse in NJ looking to transition into health care management
Hi, thank you so much for watching. Feel free to send me a message on LinkedIn!
Rights of a persons body whether in reproduction , mental health, disability and all manner of deeply personal decisions needs to be of consent and proper process. There are many times in history like eugenics or false hierarchies… or evil clinical studies of mental health or holocaust or
Slavery… so many reasons for better rights and health interoperability. The economics are extensions
Of this reality. .
I agree Ryan!
Hi, sorry for the long message. I’ve tried to go for nursing but I don’t like it, because it’s a lot of studying and memorizing and I’ve failed some of my A&P classes. I then thought I would go for business but am honestly not sure what business I’d want to work at, then I thought about doing business in healthcare so I am now in the health service administration but I’m not sure if I’d like that, I feel like I’m not a leader type of person. I thought it would be more of a receptionist paperwork type of job. I’m also not very good at finance which I’m assuming you need to be good at. I also feel like healthcare might be kind of limiting in terms of business type jobs so I was thinking of switching to a business management degree so I could work at any type of business. I’m curious what your thoughts are. Are you able to work in healthcare with a business degree or only with a degree in healthcare? And do you have to get a masters? Is it even worth being in healthcare administration if you don’t have a masters?
If you respond thanks 💖
Hi Rachel! Welcome to the community and thanks for watching my video. I understand and would like to give you a detailed response. Let’s schedule to have a conversation, feel free to send me a DM on LinkedIn and I will send you the link to my calendar (the call will be free) I hope to talk to you!
WHAT IS YOUR VIEWS ABOUT INTRODUCING HEALTH INFORMATICS AND ADMINISTRATION TO CLINICAL MEDICAL STUDENTS ESPECIALLY IN THE DEVELOPING COUNTRIES
Hi, I feel if these programs will strengthen the given country's health systems and healthcare workforce then add them.
I will be pursuing Ms in healthcare administration at university of Houston -Clearlake as an international student this summer it is a non stem program any suggestions for me
Hi Santhi, congratulations. I recommend you network and establish relationships with your faculty members. They can serve helpful in your post-graduation endeavors.
One can one do to potentially increase their chances of landing an entry level administration role?
I currently have a MHA degree and have 4 years experience in the PFS(Patient Financial Services) side of things
Hi, Networking or Landing and Leveraging paid internships. This can help you get your foot in the door
can u tell the avg salary as healthcare and hospital admin with 2 year of work ex
I’m not sure if you’ll see this. I graduated with a Bachelor of science in healthcare management. Currently I’m in school for MHA. I have been trying to find a position in management/administration. I’m passionate about this field, however it is nearly impossible to land anything. Most employers are looking for people with 5+ years experience and do not want a person who’s new (I have bedside experience). Do you have any tips or suggestions on how I can land a job?
Hi, thank you for watching. In your case, I highly recommend you try working with a recruiter. A recruiter can help get your foot in a door with a position. All the best!
What is your insight to give to new people in Healthcare administrator and how did you Navigate for the success and achievement of your career. Thank you
Hi @oluwabunmijonah7934 thanks for watching and welcome to the channel! The healthcare administration industry is growing and for new healthcare administrators there are job opportunities.
In regards, to the second part of your question about navigating my successes and achievements, to be honest i am now celebrating my accomplishments. When I was working in my previous positions my focus was only on just doing a great job. Now that I have created a platform for upcoming healthcare professionals, I am starting assess the impact/ successes of my career accomplishments.
If you dont mind can you tell me your sun sign like which month were you born. Got me bit curious about your life.
It’s the Blood Of Jesus & Holy Ghost Fire all combined 🙏🏾
Amen! It’s the blood of Jesus & Holy Ghost fire!! This is the best response. We don’t believe in the sun, but the Son. God bless you
Righteous Anger! Your story about your mom really touched me, I nearly cried.
This is the difference I want to make in the world.
I hate my current career I’m deciding whether or not I should stay in Tech or transition in Health Administration.
Hi, thank you for your kind words. I am wishing you all the best in your career transition!
I'm a Patient Care Tech Manager & Medical Records Clerk at a Drug & Alcohol and Eating Disorder Rehab. I want to gain a degree in Health Administration because I feel this education would improve my managerial skills and give me education on paper to contribute to my career. If I already have a career such as this, would you think a Healthcare Admin would provide opportunities to grow?
Also, I am a dancer as well!!!!
Hi Jamie, It's nice meeting you! Yes, a graduate degree can be beneficial as it can help you earn higher pay and position you for managerial promotion. All the best!
I need your help i went back to nursing school but i have a masters in Healthcare admin.for many years now, but i never landed a job in it.
Hi feel free to headover to the For Health Scholars’ website and schedule a career chat with me!
Thank you so much for your content I am really learning a lot, but my question is how can I transition from a bachelors degree in Agric to masters in healthcare administration in information management thanks
Hi Esther, thanks for watching. Do note that healthcare administration and information management are two different degrees. In order to make the pivot, I suggest you conduct research on both degrees ( healthcare administration & information management) to see which closely aligns with your career interests. All the best!
@@forhealthscholars thank you very much ma
Can anyone help me to get information about study in healthcare administration.
I am from business studies background and did BBA and MBA. NOW I am working in a healthcare company as Admin. So question is "Will it be easy for me to do my masters in health care administration or only Mbbs students can do it?
Hi, your question is subjective... I am not sure if it will be easy as a MBA and MHA are two different degrees.
Hi where did you get your License
Hi, no I did not get a Nursing Home Administrator license.
People. Please TRANSFER your loved ones out before you complain.... for obvious reasons. I'll put it like this... health care workers are DARK
