1. Department of Health Administration
Like all businesses, the health care-related businesses need excellent management and leadership to be successful. As a Health Care Administrator, you may manage a single department or an entire health care facility. To facilitate clinical professional services and make effective decisions, health care administrators must understand basic business principles, and demonstrate strong leadership.
Entry-level professionals may be responsible for establishing and implementing the policies and objectives of a specific clinical area or department within a facility.
