Student Success Story
“When I began my Medical Office Administration program at triOS College, I knew I wanted a career that combined organization, communication, and compassion. The program gave me exactly that foundation. From learning medical office procedures and electronic health records to mastering healthcare fundamentals and professional communication. One of the most impactful parts of my journey was being taught by Amy Plytowany, Head of the Medical Office Administration Department, who guided me through all the medical components of the diploma. I had never studied anything medical before, yet she made the transition seamless and effortless.
Thanks to her teaching, and the support of other dedicated instructors, I was able to excel academically and graduate with a 93% and a distinction. The instructors at triOS were not only knowledgeable but also incredibly supportive, ensuring that every student felt confident and prepared. As a part of my internship at Royal Victoria Regional Health Centre (RVH), I was able to put those skills into practice every day on the Transitional Care Unit. I answered patient calls, prepared discharge packets, request supplies through Facility Fit Pro, coordinate patient movement for diagnostic procedures using Facility Pro, organize charts, manage unit access, and prepare Excel reports for my preceptor. I am also learned to use the Meditech Expansion Bed Management, which has expanded my understanding of hospital systems and patient flow.
That hands‑on experience was incredible. Shadowing Patient Services Clerks has shown me how vital administrative professionals are to the smooth operation of healthcare. It has also confirmed that the training I received at triOS prepared me to step confidently into a hospital environment and contribute meaningfully from day one. For anyone considering triOS College, I encourage you to take the leap.
The program doesn’t just teach theory, it also equips you with practical skills, real‑world experience, and the confidence to pursue opportunities in healthcare administration. As a newcomer in Canada, triOS also helped me to bond with my classmates and create lifelong friendships. My journey from the classroom to RVH proves that triOS open doors to meaningful careers, and I am excited to continue building mine.”
