Healthcare science has always been one of the most dynamic fields for study and practice. It stands out as one of the few disciplines that is wholesomely dedicated towards the well being of fellow humans. Technological innovations, better medicines and service will make this field richer in the times to come. Healthcare science stands out also for its uniqueness. With so many different fields for excellence, the ways of approach are varied. On one hand you have Nutrition which is primarily theory based and on the other extreme you have Laboratory Technology where practical knowledge based on theoretical concepts prevail over always (skill component is equally important as knowledge).
But at the end of the day, theory or practical is not the question. For thorough professionals to make it big in this field there has to be dedication, orientation and lots of sincere hard work especially when it comes to caring for patients. Today the field is expanding even more. Medical tourism, healthcare counseling and medical services at your doorstep are gaining popularity. Whatever the dimensions this discipline takes, selfless service and hard work will always be the main requirement.
