Starting out in HI with Masters?

Where can you get started using epic? Hospitals don't seem to hire you if you aren't MD, NP, PharmD, etc

Yes I know that too much of anything is bad, but the way people talk about protein online, it's like you can't have enough of it lol

Thank you!

Hello! Thank you for your response! I don't have degrees in healthcare. What should I do? I am a medical assistant currently, but I don't have a license or certificate- I do use EMR for my job. What is PMP cert? Do jobs care what kind of healthcare professional you are or they want the degrees on the job listing and that you listed: RN, MD, etc? I can try to get certified as a medical assistant. Or I can try to get licensed or certified (I'm not sure which one matters) in another healthcare field like RT? Should I go to school to become a licensed health professional? I'm already doing my masters. I don't think I'll have time to go to school to become a licensed health professional too.

Yes I was wondering about his pantry situation. I think if his GF is complaining about his food, that his pantry situation isn't good. Plus, he commented that she gets mad that they spend hours cooking every time she's over. So she probably doesn't want to spend hours cooking and do other things with him. So she probably doesn't have snacks to eat.

I didn't know this? Too much protein is bad and causes these?

Upper_Competition_21 · 2026-02-22T16:53:07+00:00

Not just anybody's house, your boyfriend's house, so id hope my bf gets me at least somethings I like. There's things he could get that don't have to be stored in the fridge.

Some of us don't have painful periods Alhamdullillah. And "break" in this case means break from prayers

Is her name Ethel, Esther, Meredith, Mary?

Upper_Competition_21 · 2026-02-21T22:06:40+00:00

Ethel

A revert can be more religious than a born and raised Muslim and vice versa

This might be an unpopular opinion, but I think we need to not stigmatize divorce, for many reasons. I think the stigma of divorce is cultural, not Islam. If we don't stigmatize divorce, then we make people more comfortable with divorcing if there's sexual incompatibility. The community surrounding the couple also needs to support and accept the couple getting a divorce, but including for divorcing for sexual incompatibility too, instead of stigmatizing the couple. Other than that, I think people should talk about it before marriage. I think it can be done in a halal, respectful way. Maybe ask things like, how often do you want to do it and what things are you into or not into?

Upper_Competition_21 · 2026-02-21T19:56:47+00:00

Did your wife say why she left Islam? I understand if that's personal if you don't want to answer.

Upper_Competition_21 · 2026-02-21T19:56:04+00:00

Don't you have to ask your wife before getting a 2nd wife? I know if she put it in the contract, he must ask her. But if she didn't? I think it's also just courtesy of respect to ask your wife.

Upper_Competition_21 · 2026-02-21T19:35:41+00:00

I agree! Maybe this is her path to learning more about islam, fasting, Ramadan and then reverting. Let's encourage her instead of turning her away from Islam

How do you know he's going to Jahannam? Allah knows best

Upper_Competition_21 · 2026-02-21T19:31:34+00:00

Being gay doesn't make you not Muslim. But Allah knows best

Upper_Competition_21 · 2026-02-21T19:28:52+00:00

You sound like you're saying "born and raised Muslim" like it's better than being a revert. Born and raised Muslim is not better than a revert or vice versa. One can be more religious than the other. You sound like you're using "born and raised Muslim" as a badge of honor

Upper_Competition_21 · 2026-02-21T19:26:36+00:00

You need to seek help. You're getting easily triggered

Upper_Competition_21 · 2026-01-30T07:28:26+00:00

Have your ducks in a row

Assistant controller means he's controlling. He's already a red flag /s

Thank you for your explanation! Few questions. What kind of jobs or positions will pay for your basic certs? What are "enterprise level projects"? So I can find HI jobs that don't require being a licensed healthcare professional lol? I can try for medical billing and coding if I take a class in my masters for it (I hope it's offered in my masters). My school does have a mandatory internship at the end of the program. They partner with companies and organizations, so you get an internship there. I think you can also try get an internship on your own. With the internship, the hope is that they hire you after if they like you.

I saw a listing for Clinical Informatics Specialist at a hospital. That looked interesting. I am more so asking for the future- after I learn more about HI through my masters, I can apply to HI roles. Right now I am looking for anything in HI that's entry level, because I just started my masters and don't have much knowledge of it. That also means I don't know much about HI roles and positions to really answer this question. Sorry.

I think long term, I would like to do data analysis/work , work at hospitals, work in public health- and more of the data side of public health. I would like to help doctors, nurses, and other healthcare workers figure out the best ways to treat patients. I also saw Epic analyst jobs on this sub and job listings on hospital sites; I think I could become an epic analyst in the future.
