The online Health Unit Coordinator program prepares students to gain industry certification and to ultimately work within hospitals, clinics, nursing homes, and other healthcare facilities. Our highly immersive program utilizes 12 unique eLearning components designed to keep students engaged, stimulated, and entertained throughout their training. The student learning experience is driven by recorded video lectures delivered by expert instructors, with simulations, video demonstrations, virtualized environments, and many other professionally-produced learning objects. Multiple assessments test the students' knowledge and understanding of the material contained in each lesson leading up to the comprehensive final exam for each course.
This certification program introduces students to the health care facility environment and the various procedures performed by a certified Health Unit Coordinator. The role of Unit Coordinator has expanded over the years as new technology has been introduced, legal and ethical standards have been tightened, and various supporting roles within the medical environment have evolved. Today's Health Unit Care Coordinator wears many hats but is often considered the "go-to" person for nurses, doctors, and other hospital staff. Top candidates should be able to set up charts, perform data entry, maintain patient records, manage facility communications, and monitor compliance with facility policy and confidential regulations.
Because graduates will be working in a healthcare facility, it is imperative that he/she be able to speak and understand the language of medicine and have a fundamental understanding of basic human anatomy and physiology. Health Unit Coordinators may also be asked to transcribe doctor's orders and update patient records. To address these job roles, students will complete a pre-requisite course covering these topics. A HUC will also be called upon to work within a patient's electronic health record (EHR) to perform audits, process release requests, and to perform a basic collection of patient demographic and insurance information. To address these tasks, this program contains a course covering Electronic Health Records.
Upon completion of this program, graduates will have met the training requirements to sit for the Certified Health Unit Coordinator (CHUC) examination, which is sponsored by the National Association of Health Unit Coordinators (NAHUC).
Because Customer Service is a priority in situations where direct care or other patient/client interaction occurs, students will learn the fundamentals of Customer Service by completing a module that has been aligned with standards set forth by the International Customer Service Association (ICSA). Students that successfully complete this module will achieve certification as a Certified Customer Service Professional (CCSP).
Certified graduates from the Health Unit Coordinator training program will find exciting new career opportunities including Certified Health Unit Coordinator, Unit Secretary, Unit Clerk, Monitor Technician, Ward Clerk, Scheduling Coordinator, Patient Access Coordinator, and more!
