Please try to take advantage of the Summer Anatomy and Physiology Enrichment Program being given by Liz Blake.   This program is for any student who wishes to review and refresh their knowledge of normal human anatomy and physiology. This program is open to all students wishing to attend. 

Topics which will be discussed include: 

  • Organization of the body
  • Basic Chemistry
  • Cells, Tissues and Membranes
  • Skin/Skeletal and Muscular system
  • Nervous System/Senses
  • Endocrine System/Metabolism
  • Hematologic System
  • Heart and Circulatory system
  • Respiratory System
  • Digestive System
  • Fluid and Electrolytes
  • Microbiology and Disease 

The program will be interactive and include clinical application of the topics discussed.  In addition, thought provoking questions will be added for supplemental learning.

The anatomy and physiology enrichment program will begin each day at 8:30a.m. and end at
12:30p.m. and will take 5 days to complete.  Students attending this program will be required to attend all 5 days.

Pre and post testing will be utilized to assess the learning needs of the student.

In order to prepare for this program students are encouraged to read and review topics prior to attending class.  Students are not required to purchase any additional books or material.  However, students are encouraged to bring note books and may bring small tape recorders to record any lecture if they so desire.

The assigned clinical groups list will be given out during orientation. Please email Paulina with requests for evenings and study groups paulina.marra-powers@solishc.com. There will be both a psych and med/surg evening group. Also email Paulina if evenings would be a hardship, no response from you will be taken as an "I am flexible" answer, meaning you can do either.
