Welcome to Medical Occupations!

Hello Students of 2010-2011 ~

This blog is your connection to classroom news and graded homework. Please bookmark this blog on your computer at home and check it every night to stay in touch with requirements for the course. If you are unable to access the Internet...call a friend and ask what is on the blog. This is your responsibility!

Your first assignment is due Friday 8/27....interview friends and family...do they have any of the conditions on the medic alert material? Do they take medications? Do they have allergies? How about special conditions that need specific medical attention? Look online for more information and bring it in to class to share. Type up three paragraphs on what a medic alert bracelet/necklace is, what conditions justify wearing one and then who in your life (maybe you) needs one. How will you communicate the importance of having one in a clear, concise way?Print out your work and bring to class. Do not email your assignment to me.

I'm sure you will find at least one person (maybe even yourself) that would benefit from a medic alert bracelet or necklace. Remember - take the time to order one and you'll save a lot of time in an emergency. These save lives every day. Just ask an EMT, Firefighter, Paramedic or an Emergency Room nurse or physician.

Please bring to class: Clean, gently used teddy bears and stuffed animals - Let's impress our guest speaker from Good News Bears on Friday with all that we have collected.
PM CLASS: Please bring in your emergency form, signed by a parent.

Thank you Ben and Kacey for being classroom managers today. You were a big help.

~Mrs. Erceg
