Hi! My daughter is interested in a career with some clinical exposure but not SLP, OT, PT or nursing. So, something else in Allied Health. She's trying to decide what to take in college to keep the most doors open. She's not interested in nursing, but would be a great health educator; wants to understand science and coach / teach / work 1:1 or maybe small groups...Some sort of patient liaison or trainer? What masters' programs have been unexpectedly (or expectedly) helpul?
What careers are out there?
Thank you!

Hope this is a fun thread for someone:)

Generally patient educators are nurses. You can look on indeed to see how many jobs there are in your area under the title "nurse educator"

Can also be a masters level geneticist.

Maybe get a bachelor's in nursing and then master's in public health or administration?

Genetic Counselor would fit the bill.
Also, she might want to reconsider nursing. So many options for nurses in education, schools, research, mh support. It's really the most open ended allied health major.

Don’t go the dietitian route. Woefully underpaid. Nursing can be completely education

Child life specialist?

The thing is - if she gets a nursing degree - she still has to do so much nursing stuff and if she doesn’t like that…

Is there another route to a masters in public health?
