In the fast-paced, hyper-connected world we live in, our lives are often ruled by digital screens and constant notifications. While technology has transformed the way we live and work, it's essential to take a step back every now and then and recognize the impact it can have on our mental well-being. The concept of a "digital detox" has gained popularity as a way to take a step back, unplug, and reconnect with the present moment. In this article, we'll explore the importance of digital detoxing for mental well-being and provide practical tips on how to achieve a healthier balance in the digital age.
The average person spends a significant amount of time each day glued to screens, whether it's for work, social media, entertainment, or other digital activities. This constant exposure to screens can lead to digital overload, contributing to feelings of stress, anxiety, and burnout. Recognizing the need for a break is the first step towards prioritizing mental health. Here are some benefits of doing a digital detox.
In a world where technology plays a central role in our lives, finding a balance between digital engagement and real-world experiences is crucial for mental well-being. A digital detox doesn't necessarily mean completely disconnecting from the digital world; it's about consciously managing our screen time to create a healthier and more fulfilling life. By incorporating these practical tips into our daily routines, we can reap the benefits of a digital detox and nurture our mental well-being in the process.
Completing a certificate in Medical Assisting through Ross Medical has jumpstarted my career! I was recently hired on at an oncology office which is such an amazing opportunity. I have gained so much valuable experience and I am continuing to learn new information and gain new experience every time I am at work.

My name is Kimberly. I'm going to tell you how Ross has changed my life. I was working 40-60 hours a week at a factory, 7 days a week. I made the decision to try Ross and see where this life adventure takes me. I am now an RMA and work at Speciality Clinic. I worked very hard on working full time and going to school full time. Ross was a very important decision that I made for my life and a very special place for me. I would recommend that anyone try Ross. It will change your life forever, it did mine. Thank you - Kimberly

My time at Ross was a great experience. During my externship, I had an interview at a renal clinic. When I graduated, I began working a medical biller.

I chose Ross Medical Education Center for schooling because I was looking for a great place to learn and start a fantastic career path. Before attending Ross, I was not sure which medical career path I wanted to enroll in. I toured the school and the administrative staff told me a little bit about each class offered. I decided to join the Dental Assistant program. Throughout the course, Ross Medical Education Center went above and beyond to make sure each student had everything they needed in order to be successful. My learning experience at Ross was exceptional! I learned so much more than I had anticipated. Ross is very hands-on and allows students to practice clinically in school and practice during externship at a medical office. I really enjoy that the school gives students the opportunity and benefit of learning "on-site" and being a part of a co-worker team. While I was on externship, I gained working confidence and efficiency on the things I was taught in school. I was able to get my radiology certification while on externship and I am now able to take x-rays on patients when needed. I've also been able to assist the dentist on procedures, sterilize instruments, set up trays and operatories. Overall, I think Ross Medical Education Center was a great school choice! I could not ask for a better school to help me prepare and start a great career! I would recommend Ross schools to anyone wanting to start a career in the medical field.
