Anatomy and Physiology I examines the normal structure and function of the human adult. The course begins with an orientation to the human body, the levels of organization within the body and the inter-related and interdependence of body systems.  The concepts of metabolism, fundamental physiological needs and homeostasis are introduced. All knowledge is then applied to the study of the integumentary, skeletal, muscle and the nervous systems. Learner preparation and learning activities are designed to promote critical thinking. Textbook Required.

NOTE: This course has online proctored exam(s). To complete the proctored exam, you are responsible to follow the directions in the course to setup your account and schedule your exam 

Computer Requirements: Students must use a PC or MAC computer (chrome books, tablets etc. are not permitted).  A web cam and have access to a high-speed Internet connection is also required. During your online exam, there may be software required to be installed on your computer to enable the proctor to effectively monitor your exam session remotely

Anatomy and Physiology 2 continues to examine the normal structure and function of the human adult. The student relates knowledge gained in Anatomy and Physiology 1 to the study of the endocrine, circulatory, digestive, respiratory, urinary and reproductive systems. The concepts of water, electrolyte and acid-base balance are re-examined building on the foundation established in Anatomy and Physiology 1. Learner preparation and learning activities are designed to promote critical thinking. Prerequisite: Anatomy & Physiology 1 for RPN. Textbook Required.

Expand your knowledge of CAD, MI and their complications. A focus is directed to interpreting 12 lead ECGs and bundle branch blocks. Theory on pacemakers and common cardiac drugs is included. Prerequisite: Current RN or RPN registration, or final year of RN or RPN program & have successfully completed Coronary Care 1, Textbook required.

This course will provide an introductory examination of pharmacology and expand your knowledge base of a variety of drugs and interactions. You will examine drug legislation, pharmacological actions and come to understand the responsibility of handling and dispensing medications. This is not an applied medications course. 

Prerequisite: A prior course or knowledge of Medical Terminology is highly recommended.

Textbook required.

This course will provide an introduction to the fundamentals of pathophysiology and related disease processes. The underlying concepts of homeostasis, cellular changes, inflammation, infection, healing and abnormal immune responses will be examined. The basic concepts of fluid - electrolyte and acid – base balance will be analyzed and how imbalances can promote disorder in the body. Common diagnostic testing will be examined and how they are utilized in the process of diagnosing disease and prognostic outcomes. Specific diseases and disorders will be discussed to apply the concepts learned and how they affect the structure and functioning of the human body. Basic treatment modalities will be reviewed as a foundation of learning to be expanded upon in the practicum experience. Prerequisite: Anatomy & Physiology II. Textbook Required.

This course will study advanced concepts of pathophysiology and related disease processes.  Using a body system approach and building of the concepts discussed in Pathology I the student will continue to explore the pathology of variety of disorders.  With each unit diagnostic testing common to the system will be examined and their role in diagnosis and prognostic outcomes.  Specific diseases and disorders will be discussed to apply learned concepts and how they affect the structure and function of the human body.  Basic treatment modalities will be reviewed as a foundation of learning to be expanded upon in the practicum experience.

Designed for medical office professionals to assist in developing an understanding of common medical tests related to a wide variety of body systems.  Knowledge in the area of medical testing will help the student to educate the patient in relation to the description and purpose of the test, preparation of the patient before the test, with care during and after the test, end expected results. Risks, complications, and special concerns are covered. This course is open to people currently employed in health related areas or hope to do so in the future. Prerequisite: Medical Terminology. Textbook required.
