ATA College - Louisville

PPE in practice!

Our Medical Assisting students are learning more than just how to put on personal protective equipment. They’re learning when it’s needed, how to use it properly, and why it matters. Proper PPE is an essential part of infection prevention and helps protect both healthcare workers and patients by reducing the risk of exposure and the spread of infection. 🩺✨

Hands-on practice today = safer care tomorrow!

Happy to see a familiar face at the doctor’s office today! 🧡 Amanda is a two-time ATA graduate, having completed both our Medical Assisting and Pre-Licensure Practical Nursing programs. It’s such a great feeling to see our graduates putting their education into action and making a difference in healthcare! 🩺✨

It’s moments like this that make us so proud to be part of our students’ journeys. 🧡

This Friday, we’re giving a special shoutout to all of our hardworking nursing students at ATA! 🩺🤭

Every class, clinical, study session, and new skill learned is another step toward the career you’ve been working for. Keep showing up, keep pushing forward, and remember how far you’ve already come.🧡

We’re proud of you, future nurses — keep up the hard work! 👏✨

✨ Graduate Spotlight✨

Taylor

Limited Medical Radiography with Medical Assisting Program | Class of 2019

What did you love most about ATA?

At the time I was a student, I loved that it was an accelerated program with small class sizes, supportive instructors, and strong hands-on learning opportunities. Now, what I appreciate most is the strong foundation ATA provided that allowed me to continue my education and the many opportunities that have been offered to me because of my experience at ATA.

Where are you working now?

I am currently a full-time student in the UofL Radiology program working toward my RT. I also serve as an adjunct instructor at ATA, teaching Anatomy & Positioning. In addition, I work for UofL Health in the MRI suite. Upon graduation, I accepted a full-time position with plans to cross-train into CT.

What do you enjoy most about your career?

What I enjoy most about my career is the opportunity I have to help patients. I also love how interesting radiology is, everyday has the potential to be something different.

What advice would you give to someone considering a career in healthcare?

Be prepared to work hard and stay committed. Healthcare is challenging but incredibly rewarding. If you stay focused and open to learning, the opportunities for growth are endless.

What’s one piece of advice you have for current ATA students?

Don’t give up when things get difficult. Stay focused, ask questions, and trust the process it will be worth it in the end.

Taylor, it’s been amazing to watch your journey from ATA student to healthcare professional and educator. We are incredibly proud of you and grateful to have been a part of your story.

A new quarter begins tomorrow! 🎉

These LPN students are sending positive vibes and encouragement to all ATA College students as we kick off the new quarter.

Wishing everyone a successful quarter! 🧡📚
