Happy Wednesday!

Good morning everyone!

Welcome to the new blog that is able to be accessed through the internet by mobile or computer device.

You are more than welcome to come on here to check for resources, vocabulary, previous assignments and so forth. :) Keep in mind updates are still under development for this site so bare with us for the next two days.

As a reminder, this class is Clinical Procedures II (or you may recognize it as MA 114) and it is vital and important to bring all equipment necessary for this class, especially, for clinic.

For future references any chapter covered in the book must have key terms and learning objectives done to be handed in by Thursday of that particular assignment week. For example, chapters 9&10 were/are being covered and tomorrow is the due date for the key terms and learning objectives in the text.

Hope you find and use this site resourceful and to its full potential! Enjoy!
