Did you know. . . that you could have a healthcare career without being a nurse or a doctor? In fact, most people in healthcare belong to another
group of professionals called allied health providers. These professionals work to deliver high-quality patient care services
for the identification, prevention and treatment of diseases, disabilities and disorders. That’s a long way of saying that allied
health providers work to make sick or injured people healthy and keep them healthy.
There are HUNDREDS of allied health professions and over six million people in allied health jobs! That means that most people
in healthcare are not doctors or nurses, but they are . . . Allied Health Professionals!
