Hematologists

One good way to learn more about health care careers is to volunteer at a local hospital, clinic, or nursing home. This will allow you to see what it's like to work around other health care professionals and patients and possibly determine exactly where your interests lie. As in any career, reading as much as possible about the profession (such as The Hematologist, a newsletter published by the American Society of Hematology, http://www.hematology.org/Thehematologist), talking with a career counselor, and interviewing those working in the field are other important ways to explore your interest.
