Workplace Safety emphasizes infection control and personal safety practices to protect patients and healthcare workers. In Patient Positioning and Moving, students learn proper body mechanics and safe transfer techniques to prevent injury and promote patient comfort and mobility. Vital Signs for Caregivers provides hands-on training in measuring temperature, pulse, respiration, and blood pressure while recognizing normal and abnormal findings.
