 |  |  | Course Descriptions
 |  |  | (Course content may be taught as concepts within other courses.)
 |  |  | #1 Health Science I: Introduction to Health Science:  Instructional content will focus on healthcare communications, leadership and teamwork, and reinforce, expand and enhance biology content specific to human structure and function.   Instruction will use interest inventories and observations to introduce students to careers in healthcare and will incorporate project- and problem-based healthcare practices and procedures to demonstrate the criticality of these knowledge and skills. This course will build an understanding of the academic, communication, and technical skills in all aspects of the industry.  Students will learn how healthcare workers fit within the overall health care environment and will identify how key systems affect quality of care and other services they perform.
 |  |  | #2 Information Technology Applications:  This course is designed for those students who have not mastered knowledge and skills related to technology applications prior to entry into high school. Students will use technology tools to manage personal schedules and contact information, create memos and notes, prepare simple reports and other business communications, manage computer operations and file storage, and use electronic mail, Internet applications and GIS to communicate, search for and access information. Students will develop skills related to word processing, database management, and spreadsheet applications.
 |  |  | #3 Health Science II: Health, Safety and Ethics in the Health Environment:  Instructional content will focus on healthcare safety, health maintenance practices and environmental safety processes and procedures, ethical and legal responsibilities as well as reinforce, expand and enhance biology content specific to diseases and disorders.  Instruction will incorporate project- and problem-based healthcare practices and procedures to demonstrate the criticality of these knowledge and skills. Students will develop basic technical skills required for all health career specialties including understanding occupational safety techniques and obtaining their CPR and First Aid certifications.
 |  |  | #4 Health Science III: Employment in Health Occupations:  Instructional content will focus on healthcare information technology applications, employability and career development, and technical skill preparation.  These knowledge and skills will provide guidance for career selection and application for both entry-level employment and post-secondary preparation.  Instruction will incorporate project- and problem-based healthcare practices and procedures to demonstrate the criticality of these knowledge and skills.
