HLT 110 Introduction to Health Care Professions
Provides an overview of various health professions including the history of health care and its more modern issues. Students will study ethical and legal considerations, scope of practice responsibilities, and gain an appreciation of the medical knowledge, skills, and professional behaviors required for success in health care education programs and careers. Lab activities include a variety of hands-on experiences across multiple health care fields, college success activities, and opportunities for research or professional observations conducted in actual clinical settings (subject to availability). To qualify for job shadowing in a clinical setting, students must comply with all clinical site standards for medical documentation (e.g., physical examination, vaccinations, etc.), training (e.g., HIPAA, etc.) and other requirements.
