Hello, I am the Health Science instructor. I have been a nurse for almost 27 years. I was at UMMC for 17 years before coming to YCSD to be the nurse at Linwood in 2020. YCSD started the Health Science CTE class in 2021 and I was honored that I got the oppurtunity to teach this CTE course. Her is an overview of this course:
Health Science is a two-year skills program that introduces students to helath careers, the basic health sciences, and basic health career skills. In year one, students learn about basic health care skills, legal and ethical health issues, medical terminology, body systems, and helath care career possibilities.
