VENTURA, Calif. - TelAve -- The Workforce Development Board of Ventura County is launching a groundbreaking initiative to train 250 low- and moderate-income individuals in healthcare occupations. The Ventura County Healthcare Employment Accelerator (VC Heal Healthcare Careers) program focuses on strengthening the county's healthcare workforce and expanding career opportunities for residents. With nearly $7.5 million in funding, this program aims to improve healthcare infrastructure, support economic recovery after the 2018 wildfires, and promote overall community well-being.

The VC Heal Healthcare Careers program will provide guidance to help participants succeed in critical healthcare roles. Among the standout offerings is the Clinical Medical Assisting program, which equips students with both hands-on patient care techniques and administrative expertise, preparing them for roles in clinics and hospitals. The Certified Phlebotomy Technician program trains individuals in blood collection and specimen handling – critical skills in labs, hospitals, and medical offices. The Medical Billing & Coding Specialist program provides students with the knowledge to navigate insurance claims and healthcare administration, opening doors to careers in hospitals, private practices, and insurance companies. Additionally, the Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) program prepares students for critical emergency response roles, meeting the constant demand for trained professionals in ambulance services and hospitals. The Physical Therapy Aide/Assistant program responds to the growing need for rehabilitation services, as an aging population drives demand for professionals who can support patient recovery and mobility. These programs are just a few of the many opportunities available through the VC Heal Healthcare Careers program, which offers a wide range of training options to help residents enter and advance in the growing healthcare industry.
