Reflection: Do you think you would like to be one? Why? Why not?
I honestly don't think i would like to be one because i would prefer being there with the patient. This sounds like a great job I'm not really interested in it. I would prefer being hands in helping a patient. I like that you don't need a lot of school to be a Health Information Specialists but i don't think this is my type of job. This job is more for someone who wants to work in a computer or handling papers and I'm not interested in that.
