A healthcare assistant is also known as a medical assistant. This person is responsible for carrying out all the administrative or clinical tasks for making sure that all the operations in the medical facility are running smoothly. These professionals will be always found in the physician's office or hospitals. Healthcare assistants will help the physicians to perform all the medical procedures. They will have to make patients X-rays, prepare and collect laboratory specimens, record vital signs or administer all the medications.
To get a job in the healthcare industry, you will have to write a good covering letter. Here are two specimen healthcare assistant cover letters that will help you further.
