課堂經歷
Do you envision yourself working in pediatrics as a physician, surgeon, nurse, or something else? Do you enjoy a challenge? This course builds a rock-solid foundation of medical language, which will be vital to your future career in medicine. Students will engage in what it feels like to truly study Pediatrics while thinking critically through medical case reports and escape rooms. Students will keep a thought-provoking reflection journal throughout the course to further expand career exploration. We'll focus on polishing the pronunciation of medical terms and bring learning language full circle with spelling tests every week. We'll engage in proper study habits along the way that shine a light on organization, note-taking, and time management. The patient perspective is an important one, and each week, students will put themselves into the shoes of the patient. Week 1: ➢ Introduction & icebreaker activity ➢ Course overview ➢ Medical terminology lecture ➢ Pathways in Pediatrics: General Pediatrics, Neonatology, Fetal Surgery ➢ Assignments: Reflection Journal, Pronunciation Practice, Medical Case Report, Spelling Test ➢ The Patient Perspective ➢ Interactive Activity (choose one to complete): Scavenger Hunt, Medical Art, Medical Terminology Baking Challenge Week 2: ➢ Medical terminology lecture ➢ Pathways in Pediatrics: Pediatric Allergy & Immunology ➢ Assignments: Reflection Journal, Pronunciation Practice, Medical Case Report, Spelling Test ➢ The Patient Perspective ➢ Interactive Activity: Escape Room Week 3: ➢ Medical terminology lecture ➢ Pathways in Pediatrics: Pediatric Cardiology & Fetal Cardiology ➢ Assignments: Reflection Journal, Pronunciation Practice, Medical Case Report, Spelling Test ➢ The Patient Perspective ➢ Escape Room Challenge ➢ Interactive Activity (choose one to complete): Scavenger Hunt, Medical Art, Medical Terminology Baking Challenge Week 4: ➢ Medical terminology lecture ➢ Pathways in Pediatrics: Pediatric Development & Behavioral Issues ➢ Assignments: Reflection Journal, Pronunciation Practice, Medical Case Report, Spelling Test ➢ The Patient Perspective ➢ Interactive Activity: Escape Room Week 5: ➢ Medical terminology lecture ➢ Pathways in Pediatrics: Pediatric Endocrinology ➢ Assignments: Reflection Journal, Pronunciation Practice, Medical Case Report, Spelling Test ➢ The Patient Perspective ➢ Interactive Activity (choose one to complete): Scavenger Hunt, Medical Art, Medical Terminology Baking Challenge Course content and lectures will be released each Monday. Assignments will be due the following Sunday. IMPORTANT NOTE: This class focuses only on medical language and will not be offering any medical advice, therapy, or treatment. STUDENT INTERACTION: This course includes the use of Padlet, reflection journals, medical case reports, and escape rooms to allow for a high level of student-student and student-teacher interaction.
學習目標
➢ Analyze words by dividing them into component parts. Your goal is to learn the tools of word analysis that will make understanding complex terminology easier. This course shows how to separate both complicated and simple terms into understandable word elements. "Medical terms are much like jigsaw puzzles in that they are constructed of small pieces that make each word unique, with one major difference: The pieces can be shuffled up and used in lots of combinations to make other words as well. As you become familiar with word parts and learn what each means, you will be able to recognize those word parts in totally new combinations in other terms." The Language of Medicine, 12th edition (Chabner).
➢ Relate medical terms to the structure and function of the human body.
➢ Become aware of spelling and pronunciation problems.
➢ Understand the patient perspective with empathy.
➢ Reflect on personal career aspirations, study habits, and more.
其他詳情
父母的引導和規範
Students choosing to participate in the optional Medical Terminology Baking Challenge each week should do so under adult supervision in the kitchen (using knives, oven/stove, blender, or other kitchen utensils can be hazardous). Students should avoid cooking or consuming any potential known allergens, such as wheat, gluten, dairy, soy, eggs, etc.
Again, the baking challenge is optional, and students may choose another activity in its place if desired.

學士學位 在 英語 從 University of Massachusetts at Lowell
Medical language is my specialty! I have a connection to the medical field that is deep. I specialize in medical language and have worked in the field since 1999--over 22 years of experience in medicine! In addition, my multiple certifications are detailed below. I am fluent in medical terminology and certified in all clinical specialties. I am an expert in health information integrity.
CHDS - Certified Healthcare Documentation Specialist
What is a CHDS? The Association for Healthcare Documentation Integrity certifies medical transcriptionists (also known as medical language specialists) in the foundational understanding of the following:
➢ Medical terminology
➢ Anatomy
➢ Physiology
➢ Disease processes
➢ Diagnostics – laboratory medicine, imaging, classification systems
➢ Treatment – pharmacology, surgery, special procedures
➢ Equipment and instruments
➢ Healthcare technology – abbreviations, definitions
➢ Electronic health record – abbreviations, definitions
➢ Speech recognition technology – abbreviations, definitions, & editing
➢ Standards, nomenclatures, and measurement systems – abbreviations,
definitions
Major Specialties: Cardiovascular, Dermatology, Endocrinology, Ophthalmology, Gastroenterology, Hepatology, Genetics, General Surgery, Hematology/Oncology, Infectious Disease, Neurology, OB/Gyn, Orthopedics, Otorhinolaryngology, Pain Management, Pediatrics, Plastic Surgery, Psychiatry/Psychology, Pulmonary Medicine, Rheumatology, and Urology.
Ancillary Specialties: Allergy/Immunology, Dentistry/Oral Surgery, and Nutrition/Dietetics.
I have held the credential of CHDS for the past 11 years, since 2010. The understanding of medical terminology is critical to medical language specialists because we must be able to hear errors spoken by dictating physicians with regard to diagnosis and treatment, which are vital to quality patient care.
From the AHDI Credentialing Candidate Guide:
"Medical transcription involves a highly interpretive skill set, where medical language specialists partner with providers to create an accurate reflection of a patient care encounter. Medical transcription demands the application of informed judgment and interpretive skill that extends beyond what is heard. It requires a foundational understanding of the diagnostic process, clinical medicine, treatment, and care to be interpreted accurately and applied within the context of complex narrative dictation. In addition to the complexities inherent in the medical document, dictating authors who speak English as a second language, those with disjointed and rambling narrative, and/or those who dictate unclearly or at accelerated speeds continue to require that medical transcriptionists bring yet another strong interpretive skill set to the process. Medical transcriptionists cannot bring that interpretive skill set to the table without a significant foundation of knowledge and training."
In addition to the foundational knowledge and expertise my CHDS credential brings to the classroom, I have also been certified as a CMT (Certified Medical Transcriptionist) by The Association for Healthcare Documentation Integrity from 2007 to 2010, when AHDI essentially rebranded credentialing medical language specialists with the CHDS credential.
I have also been certified as a COA (Certified Ophthalmic Assistant) and have worked in Ophthalmology & Optometry since 1999 as a technician, scribe, and transcriptionist. I have worked in this clinical specialty for over 20 years! COAs are certified by the Joint Commission on Allied Health Personnel in Ophthalmology (JCAHPO).
In addition to the above certifications that qualify me to teach the medical language portion of this class, I am also an educator and have taught medical terminology courses at a STEM+M high school in Rootstown, Ohio, to students in grades 9-12. Beyond that, I have been a college & career coach in the 11th-grade classroom that has guided young men & women to discover careers in medicine (and other fields). I have helped these students map out their college plans with tremendous success.
