Principles of Health Science,
Medical Terminology
The Principles of Health Science provides an overview of the therapeutic, diagnostic, health informatics, support services, and biotechnology research and development systems of the health care industry.
This course is designed to introduce students to the structure of medical terms, including prefixes, suffixes, word roots, combining forms, and singular and plural forms, plus medical abbreviations and acronyms. The course allows students to achieve comprehension of medical vocabulary appropriate to medical procedures, human anatomy and physiology, and pathophysiology.
The Health Science course is designed to provide for the development of advanced knowledge and skills related to a wide variety of health careers. Students will have hands on experiences for continued knowledge and skills development. The course may be taught by different methodologies such as clinical rotation and career preparation learning.
The Practicum in Health Science is designed to give students practical applications of previously studied knowledge and skills. Practicum experiences can occur in a variety of locations appropriate to the nature and level of experience. Class is taught at KHS. Students are responsible for providing their own transportation.

In the Principles of Biomedical Sciences™ course, students explore the concepts of human medicine and are introduced to research processes and to bioinformatics. Hands-on projects enable students to investigate human body systems and various health conditions.
In the Human Body Systems™ course students examine the processes, structures, and interactions of the human body systems to learn how they work together to maintain homeostasis (internal balance) and good health.
This course is a “how-to” manual for maintaining overall health and homeostasis in the body as students explore: how to prevent and fight infection; how to screen and evaluate the code in human DNA; how to prevent, diagnose and treat cancer; and prevalence of organ failure.
Students apply their knowledge and skills to answer questions or solve problems related to the biomedical sciences. Students design solutions for the health challenges of the twenty-first century as they work through progressively challenging open-ended problems, addressing topics such as clinical medicine, physiology, biomedical engineering, and public health.
Sports Medicine I provides an opportunity for the study and application of the components of sports medicine. Sports Medicine II involves outside-of-class time homework and time required working with athletes and athletic teams.
