By Andrea Santiago

 
If you would like to work in the medical field, regardless of whether you’re interested in a clinical role or non-clinical job, there are a variety of types of employers, companies, organizations, and medical employers from which to choose.
Learn more about a variety of interesting practice environments and medical employers.
Hospitals
Hospitals are one of the first places people may think of when deciding to work in the healthcare field, but there are many different types of hospitals and other employers available. There are thousands of hospitals in the country, and most likely there is one, or more, near you.
Not all hospitals are the same - just like companies, each hospital has a different culture and environment. Therefore, you need to consider the different features and characteristics of the hospital before you choose to work there.

  • Types of Hospitals
Medical Office
If hospitals are too large or intimidating to you, you may prefer to work in a more intimate, close-knit environment. Medical office jobs also do not require as many evening or weekend shifts as hospital jobs.
Medical offices usually are often owned and operated by physicians, or they may also be run by hospitals.
Non-profit Organizations
Non-profit organizations are groups that have been formed to promote a cause. There are hundreds of non-profit organizations that advocate health related causes or careers. Many of these organizations may be familiar to you, and others may be lesser-known.
Federal and Government Organizations
There are many government organizations that employ medical professionals in a variety of clinical and non-clinical roles. If you wish to give back to your country, and your fellow Americans, government organizations may be a great choice of employers for you in your medical career.
Military :
Employees of the military are also employees of the government. The military is very large, with many branches, bases, and facilities where you can find military medical jobs.
Not only will the military employ you as a doctor, nurse, pharmacist, or allied health professional, they may even pay, in part or in full, for your medical training and education. However, you must be willing and able to live anywhere you are sent by the military, including overseas, or even to war.
