Medical Terminology

As allied health professionals we have moved into a more medical realm, and our need for a strong medical vocabulary has become greater.  Since it would be impossible to memorize all of the terms with which you must become familiar, it will be an easier task to master if you understand more about the way medical terms are combined or put together.  Smaller pieces of words are joined together to build a meaning.  If you can understand the basics of the small parts, then it will be easier to decipher the meaning of words that are unfamiliar to you.  This home study unit will concentrate on medical terms that you will commonly use when communicating with other professionals in the health care industry.

 

When you complete this study unit you will be able to:

  • Identify many of the common roots, prefixes, and suffixes that are used in the hair removal profession
  • Determine the meaning of medical terms by analyzing their component parts
  • Familiarize yourself with medical specialties
  • Learn the correct pronunciation of medical words

PCOS & Insulin Resistance

Electrologists have been observing hair growth patterns for decades, but not until the first few years of the 21st century, have we begun to understand their implications.  With the addition of hair removal lasers in our arsenal, we can now  to see completed treatments move faster and therefore observe hair removal outcomes and the patterns of their hair growth in a more accelerated venue.

 

The goal of this home study unit is to:

  • Define Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)

The Human Body

As allied health professionals we do not need enough medical knowledge to diagnose or treat health problems, but we do need to understand how the body functions.  We need to understand the functions of the body well enough to be able to intelligently discuss issues with other health care workers as well as keep accurate charts and patient records.

 

When you complete this study unit you will be able to:

  • Describe the basic structures of the human body and describe what their function
