This introductory course is a prerequisite for most of the medical programs at Vista Adult School, including Medical Assistant, Phlebotomy Technician, Medical Insurance Billing Certificated Programs, and Medical Front Office. The course consists of modules in medical terminology, computer literacy, health and safety, body structures and function, medical math, ethical and legal responsibilities, and success strategies.
I started at Vista Adult School through the Healthcare Essentials class. The teachers and staff are very friendly and helpful. There’s student resources and workshops to help you get a job in a medical setting as well.

I’ve had a great experience here at VAS. The teachers here are so nice and very helpful. They want their students to succeed and are always here to help. Phlebotomy is a lot of fun and is very interesting. I want to thank Ms. Karen, Mr. Manny, and Mrs. Anna; they have made my time here enjoyable. Thank you to Ms. Kathy as well, for always being here for us and always making time for us.

I’ve been attending Vista Adult School for a couple of months now and I don’t regret it. The teachers are awesome, the staff is amazing and so are the programs. After having my third baby, I didn’t think it would be possible to return to school, but the times work with my schedule, and now I’m almost done with my pathway!

I would like to express my gratitude for being one of your students in MA and Phlebotomy. Thank you, Ms. Anna Weirather, Ms. Carol Parr, Ms. Karen Medina, and Mr. Manny Martinez for your guidance, friendship and for all the efforts you make to help us to grow. Thank you for making me feel like it is never too late to go back to school and continue my education. Special thank you to Ms. Karen Medina, you're such a good person and an awesome teacher. And Kathy, thank you so much for giving me a second chance. I will always be grateful to all of you for your support and guidance and to Vista Adult School for the great programs that they have.

So far my experience at Vista Adult School has been great. I was nervous at first due to the fact that I have not been in school for a couple of years. My instructor has been awesome and has taught us how to be a Pharmacy Technician through her experiences.
