Good video! I also have a degree in healthcare administration and sat for my licensure for nursing home administrator. Starting entry level pay in my area is $80,000 a year salary for administrators but it is a lot of work! It’s a lot of things you can do with this degree!
thanks so much ashley! I'm glad you enjoyed it. That is definitely very good pay for an entry level position, but I believe you when you say that it's a lot of work. Working in nursing homes is NOT easy. And very true, healthcare administration degree can be sooo broadly used.
Thank u for this video sis. I was doing good in pre nursing until statistics ugh I just switched my major BACK to business admin with 13 classes left (what was I thinking, starting all the way over for a nursing degree. My plans were to do nursing after undergrad but now I’m considering healthcare admin all the way) I’m only at 5:32 but I’m really enjoying so far ❤
Hi! I’m so happy that I stumbled upon your video and your channel! I’m considering going back to school to get my masters in healthcare administration and there definitely isn’t enough on TH-cam about it! It’s also really nice to see someone that looks like me talking about it!
Thanks so much Maya! That's always been my goal to act as representation and encourage people from diverse backgrounds (and specifically Black people) more interested in healthcare administration/management. I'm glad you enjoyed this video!
Thank you for sharing your story. There were so many things that you said that I resonated with and you also brought some clarity to me. I recently was academically dismissed from my nursing program in my senior year and I am currently going through a lot of self healing and deciding what the next step is. Thank you again for sharing. Side Note: I too am a Virgo ✌🏾
I am a black college student currently majoring in HCA, and I've been looking for a mentor who understands my field, and I've had no luck. This video was so helpful.
Yay! I'm so glad you found this video helpful. In regards to looking for a mentor, I think that looking on LinkedIn is a great place to start! Even better if you can find someone who you have a connection with, like went to the same college/high school or belong to the same culture. Overall, don't be afraid to ask and put yourself out there because I've found that most people are really willing to help students. Just to be sure to ask whether or not that person has the bandwidth/time to take on a mentor because it should be a two way street.
And literally, this is exactly my story, getting denied from Nursing school and switching as a major and switching to HCA and all. And funny thing is everyone I know with this major usually switch from nursing lol and congrats on ur masters
I cannot even begin to tell you how common this is lol. There are also a lot of people who complete their clinical training, and then go back to school for healthcare administration to get more managerial training and experience. So, you'll definitely meet a lot of people who have diverse backgrounds in this major program.
I am in the same situation right now too. My school require entrance exam like either talking the ati teas or hesi exam plus the GPA. I was struggling with the nursing entrance exam. I cried multiple time because I felt like a failure. I was scared. I didn't know what to do especially when I finish all my pre-req for Nursing major but wasn't able to get. The most miserable moment was when I didn't know what other major I wanted to do.
Same with me!had to do a whole lot of stuff in order to make it to nursing school since I couldn't make it, (didn't really have the passion for it anyway) and now I'm switching to HCA and I even like it better😂
There definitely are jobs available in healthcare administration! But, it's not as straightforward as Nursing. I'd recommend for you to watch my other video: "what you NEED to know about healthcare administration"
You will definitely find a job! There is an overall shortage in healthcare in all roles and positions tbh. Jobs are out there, but whether or not they will align with your needs/aspirations depends.
You don’t have to be good at mathematics, but you do have to be willing to learn and try. The only math we really do is statistics, and although it can get complicated it’s more about how to interpret numbers and being able to explain what your numerical outcomes mean. So if you can write, then you can do stats.
I am from the other side. A mathematician who wants to jump into healthcare managment field and I am so afraid that all the efforts and especially the cost to do the master is going to really hurt me if I will not be able to find a job after that.
That's so amazing! I had to figure it out along the way lol. The key to finding a mentor is finding someone whose in the position you'd like to be in - then just reach out and try to start a conversation! best of luck to you
I’m considering pursuing a bachelors in business admin with a focus in healthcare admin OR just getting a bachelors in health admin in general.. my endgame is to work in healthcare, however I’m afraid if I pursue the bachelors in healthcare admin degree I will ONLY be limited to working in healthcare.. I feel the business degree would give me more options outside of healthcare as well.. can I have your opinion please??
If you want to keep your options open, I would recommend going with a business degree and then getting a minor in healthcare administration or something similar. The only thing is you may have to work harder at getting your foot in the door, building your network, etc. since your degree program typically helps with those things. But, you could always supplement it with clubs, internships, volunteering etc.
I'm not familiar with the BA in org management or the BA in community healthcare. I would suggest taking a good look at the curriculum to see if there are any differences or similarities. From their titles, org management seems like a broad management degree where you could work at any organization, community health is a niche subsection in the healthcare industry (closer to public health, look up Community-Based Orgs or CBOs to learn more), and HA is a broad management degree but specifically for healthcare organizations. Hope this helps!
I plan on getting my bachelors in Health and Human Services while working as a counselor aide in the realm of substance abuse. Then later getting my masters in Healthcare management or healthcare administration. But do you think Health and Human Services for a bachelors is a good idea to get my Master later in Healthcare administration, or healthcare management?
I think it's a great way to prepare for your master's! I imagine the classes will be similar between the two programs. Sounds like a good plan to me. Best of luck to you!
I’m going to college in a few years an I’m having a hard time deciding on my major, but I know I want to get a BHA. Is getting a nursing degree or a public health degree more beneficial to get accepted into a BHA program?
Nursing and Public health are actually different fields from Healthcare administration, albeit all of them fall under the umbrella of healthcare in general. From my knowledge and experience, you don't need a nursing or public health degree in order to get a BHA. Now, depending on your career goals those may be beneficial prior to a MHA (master's degree). Deciding on a major was tough for me and I did a TON of research prior, so feel free to reach out if you have any other questions!
Do you have too pursue nursing to go in Administrative Degree ? Because I’m currently in the process changing my major for the 1000 times and i want to do something in the healthcare field but the biology is kicking my butt and I’m trying to switch to working behinds the seen.
Nope! You do not need to take any nursing classes in order to earn a degree in Healthcare Administrative. You can think of it as the "business side" of healthcare, so you'll be taking financial management, economics, healthcare legal issues, human resources, etc.
The main difference is that a master's degree will prepare for management positions like director of a department or manager of an entire clinic/office. One would have to "work their way up" with a BHA.
9:57 I would like to work with that. What would be some jobs related to that field? I just got a BS in health admin at USF what are some entry level I could get to get closer to that?
For substance abuse, I think it's likely to find positions at local community orgs or non-profits! I would suggest starting there, and maybe reaching to an employee through linkedIn for more detailed information/career advice etc.
Thanks for your question, but could you clarify? Did you mean to ask what is the difference between healthcare management and healthcare administration?
Hi.. I have a bachelor degree in science of Genetics but I didn't work on that.. I am a medical administrative assistant in a dermatology / cosmetic clinic and I decided to gat an online MBA in healthcare management but honestly sometimes I feel scared that I will not find a job or my personality will not help me because I am quite.. But can I use it to be a paitents relation manager? That's what I like actually, dealing with paitents
I think you can definitely get that position with the degree that you're earning! I would suggest also reaching out to people who already have that position for more info (i.e. job requirements, what work experiences they look for, are there any certifications needed). LinkedIn is a great place to start to try and find someone :)
Inspiring video thank you alot... I am public health graduate so I have no clinical knowledge and experience...in this condition, is it good to pursue master in health administration keeping job and PR in concern???
I might be misunderstanding your question, so please feel free to correct me, but you mentioned keeping your job while going to get your Master's degree? If that's the case, then I do think that if you can handle it, it's best to try and keep your current job in healthcare while getting your Master's degree. Strangely enough, already having a job helps a lot when you're looking for a new one - or maybe you want to stay at the same organization and just get a promotion! Hope this helps!
Well, being a literal administrator is not the only job option when you graduate with this degres. Right now, I'm working at a health policy consulting firm and I like it so far!
I'm not familiar with WGU personally but I'd recommend reaching out to alumni, speaking with advisors or counselors, or looking at their curriculum and post grad state for more information
Can anybody tell me the universities that they went to for healthcare administration or Health management information? So I just decided that I wanted to change my major to health information management or administration, but I just graduated with my associates degree in health care studies. I don’t want to start over I want my degree to be an ad on so what I’m about to study but I don’t know what schools to look into that would be a great fit.
I went to CSULB! I know that you could go for your bachelors in health admin and then take certain classes to gain more knowledge in health information management. And I'm sure that there are programs out there specifically for HIM since it's a growing field that will always need people. Hope this helps!
@@813amanda thank you, I never thought about going to school in Florida but that’s definitely a nice branch off from Philadelphia. I definitely will look into those universities, thank you so much!!
You can do your health care administrator at Capella University. I just applied for mine admission this January and will start February by God's grace. Try the school. Thanks
Hello dear nice videos Please i applied to a certificaye program in health care administration but i would really want to know if its worth studying and the demand for the career in canada
Hey, thanks for commenting! I would say that the career is definitely in demand, but the intensity of the demand can depend what you're bringing to the table and which area in the industry you aim to work in.
They're everywhere! They're only hard to find because the name of the job can vary between companies and organizations. Entry level would be Administrative Assistant, Patient Service Representative, Customer Service Specialist and another level above that might be Program Manager, Project Manager, or Specialist role (i.e. Quality Improvement Specialist). If there's a certain org/company you want to work for, I'd recommend reaching out to someone via LinkedIn/email and try to get more info on the kinds of experience they want in a candidate., I hope this helps!
It's definitely easier than other industries right now. Generally, healthcare jobs are in a shortage, meaning they need workers but there "aren't enough" to fill all of the vacancies that exist.
I personally used Quizlet (my own flashcards and other people's flashcards) for studying terms and definitions. Then, for conceptual things it was helpful to explain to someone/yourself to see how well you know it, watching videos on TH-cam, discussing with classmates, and even going to office hours sometimes. If I had the time, I also liked to create review sheets since it forced to quickly summarize the material. Then, when I finished the sheet, I would use that to review last minute things before the exam/final. I hope this helps!
After getting my Bachelor's (and some much needed reflection), I felt like going into Healthcare Administration was better suited to my strengths and skills. Plus, I realized that you really could make a difference on people's health even from an administrative role. Clinical and administrative roles need each other to provide quality healthcare services.
Hello first of all it's so kind that you reply in every single comment love to see it. Recently I got my degree in mathematics and I am intrested in going for a master in healthcare managment. Considering my background would you say that this could be a good idea and will I be able to look for a job in this field in the future?
Thank you! Yes, you will have options for jobs in the future with a MHA. I would argue that it might even be easier for you if you plan to also use/leverage your background in mathematics. The first thought that comes to mind is working in healthcare finance, but there are plenty of careers in healthcare that need people who are good at math :)
If I'm not mistaken, I think Business Administration with a concentration in Healthcare would be considered your major? At my university, your major was the same as the degree you were working towards.
I would say, technically yes. But some degree programs have different overall focuses or have small differences in their curriculum. So I think that looking at the actual curriculum and courses of the degree program will tell you more about the program than just the name.
Just Financial Management and Statistics, so technically yes. But I will say there are plenty of people who are not "good at math" that take and pass those classes.
I appreciate this video so much, I needed to see this! Thank you for the insight on HCA. I'm in the middle of switching majors and this makes me more confident about my decision. ( p.s. i'm a virgo moon so i feel you on the constant urge to plan your entire life out😅)
I'm so glad that you found this video to be helpful! And yessss, I'm a virgo sun so I've had to learn the hard way that some things you just can't plan for. But I have found comfort in trying to prepare myself for the steps I want to take in the future, so that when the right opportunity comes I can be confident for it.
Great video, I’m trying to change my major from nursing to healthcare administration and do you have any schools that you can advise me about. Thank you
Im not really in the business of recommending schools because I feel that you should go to a school that’s going to give you what you want out of college. Because I went there, I can say that there program at CSULB is good. ☺️ If there any schools you’re interested in, I would say don be afraid to reach out to alumni and get their opinion of the program.
I would say that you should have a really good reason to go back to school and get a masters degree. If you want to work in high-level management or once again a lot more exposure and experience, then I would recommend looking into what masters programs can offer you. It’s not necessary for everyone tho. It really depends on where you want to take your career.
I’m currently a nurse and debating on seeking BS healthcare administrators concentration in leadership. Are there any licensure you have to ace before seeking your first job? Another question, what does university accreditation matter ?
Entry level healthcare administration jobs don't require any licensure. For me, university accreditation (in this case, CAHME accreditation) mattered because I knew I wanted to do a post-graduate Administrative Fellowship. Most of these fellowships require that you obtain your MHA degree from a school that's CAHME-accredited.
A part of me really wants to go for HCA but I think I’m heading into business management while or after I after cosmetology my first complicated love career😭

Hey Ashley, how was the program and was it easy for you to get a job?
I have the same degree what do do you need to be able to get licensure?
Hey I was actually thinking about that how do I go about becoming a administrator for a nursing home?
Let’s say for someone who has an Ontario graduate certificate in healthcare administration management, how long does it take to get a degree?

Is there a bunch of Math? Im not good at it 😭
Just Financial Management and Statistics, so technically yes. But I will say there are plenty of people who are not "good at math" that take and pass those classes.
I appreciate this video so much, I needed to see this! Thank you for the insight on HCA. I'm in the middle of switching majors and this makes me more confident about my decision. ( p.s. i'm a virgo moon so i feel you on the constant urge to plan your entire life out😅)
I'm so glad that you found this video to be helpful! And yessss, I'm a virgo sun so I've had to learn the hard way that some things you just can't plan for. But I have found comfort in trying to prepare myself for the steps I want to take in the future, so that when the right opportunity comes I can be confident for it.
How was it been for you ? lol the Virgo in me does that too 😂😂😭
Great video, I’m trying to change my major from nursing to healthcare administration and do you have any schools that you can advise me about.
Thank you
Im not really in the business of recommending schools because I feel that you should go to a school that’s going to give you what you want out of college. Because I went there, I can say that there program at CSULB is good. ☺️ If there any schools you’re interested in, I would say don be afraid to reach out to alumni and get their opinion of the program.
@@eryndane thank you 😊
Do you recommend getting a masters in health care admin ? I’m at csulb rn prenursing and I want to switch to healthcare admin
I would say that you should have a really good reason to go back to school and get a masters degree. If you want to work in high-level management or once again a lot more exposure and experience, then I would recommend looking into what masters programs can offer you. It’s not necessary for everyone tho. It really depends on where you want to take your career.
I’m currently a nurse and debating on seeking BS healthcare administrators concentration in leadership. Are there any licensure you have to ace before seeking your first job? Another question, what does university accreditation matter ?
Entry level healthcare administration jobs don't require any licensure. For me, university accreditation (in this case, CAHME accreditation) mattered because I knew I wanted to do a post-graduate Administrative Fellowship. Most of these fellowships require that you obtain your MHA degree from a school that's CAHME-accredited.
Thanks for this video
You're welcome! thanks for watching :)
A part of me really wants to go for HCA but I think I’m heading into business management while or after I after cosmetology my first complicated love career😭
Nice! If you’re committed to cosmetology, then I agree that a degree in business would be better suited for you.
Can you get a job with associates degree in healthcare administration?
I definitely think it's possible, but they'll be more like admin assistant jobs instead of manager-level positions
@@eryndane thank you so much ☺️
