Programs
Practical Nursing
Practical Nursing provides patient care to the sick, injured, convalescent, and disabled under the direction of physicians and registered nurses. PN’s administer medications, perform IV therapies, monitor and evaluate care needs, check vital signs and perform procedures such as bathing, dressing, and wound care. They also supervise the care delivered by the nursing assistants, home health aides and medical assistants.

Clinical Medical Assistant (CMA)
A Clinical Medical Assistant (CMA) is capable of performing a wide range of duties, for example taking medical histories and recording vital signs, preparing patients for examination and assisting the physician during the examination. These skills are so vital that the Department of Labor lists medical assisting as one of the fastest growing occupations.

Phlebotomy
Phlebotomists are allied health professionals who draw blood from patients or blood donors for medical testing. They can also prepare and process blood tests. Since bloodwork is often the least favorite part of a trip to the doctor’s office, it takes a skilled phlebotomist to know how to handle each patient and situation.

Testimonials
After being out of school for over two decades, deciding to go into the phlebotomy program at Athena was very scary. But once I met with my instructors and got to know the students, it was honestly one of the best decisions I have made about my education in a long time. The teachers here care and want to see you succeed, and with the smalls classes, you can’t help but do that….so thanks Athena!

Right out of Athena I made over $75,000 a year and got a $12,000 sign on bonus! Athena really changed my life and my experience at Athena opened so many doors for me!

I had a wonderful experience at Athena, the instructors are amazing, and they helped you through every step of the way. I would absolutely recommend a family member or friend to come to Athena!
The education I received from Athena has shown me there are so many areas of nursing I can go into. I have gained the knowledge to better provide for my family and I am so proud to say that I will be a safe and effective nurse!
