Medical Terminology
Overview
Common medical terminology is a critical part of the language used by health
care practitioners. It is essentially a vocabulary that requires a uniform
pronunciation, definition, and spelling of terms used by professionals.
Individuals with medical terminology training are capable of analyzing and
interpreting medical reports related to specific body systems.
This program is appropriate for adults looking to learn new job skills, refresh
or refine existing healthcare knowledge, or improve occupational performance by
possessing a better understanding of medical terms. This course discusses word
construction and meanings that together characterize medical language. You must
have access to the Internet to complete this program. At the end of this course,

-
Identify medical terms and words by their component parts
-
Define the body structure and its systems, cavities, planes, and positions
-
Explain the importance of medical terminology in healthcare professions
