HL 109 HEALTH CAREER EXPLORATION
Healthcare is one of the fastest growing career fields in the United States. The course is designed to provide students with the chance to see if a career in health care is right for them; and if they determine they have an interest, it can help them narrow down the possible careers they might consider. This course introduces medical terminology, basic anatomy and physiology, career pathway exploration and critical soft skills. This course will explore cultural competency by introducing global healthcare, and cultural diversity in patient care. An introduction to medical administration and introductory skills of health occupations such as taking and recording vital signs, effective communication, and infection control techniques will also be covered. Prerequisites: None. Lecture: 45 hours. 3 Credits
