Stdnt Curr Med Assisting 5e (Paperback)

This competency-based learning system covers the administrative, clinical, and general areas necessary for entry-level employment as identified by the medical assistant role delineation study issued by the American Association of Medical Assistants. A listing of role delineation areas in each unit and in Appendix A make it easy to locate specific skills within each competency. Pathophysiology coverage is expanded to include additional diagnostic descriptions and information on medications commonly used to treat conditions. A new unit on related therapies presents information on complementary and alternative treatments. The Curriculum is a great tool that enables instructors and administrators to create a Medical Assisting program while integrating content from Keir and other Delmar titles.
