Health Occupation Class

In this Health occupation class i learned a lot. In the begining i had no interest in this class, But getting more into the class i only discovered that id like to be a part of the medical field.The projects benefited me and i learned many things from ancient health to different jobs that work in the hospital to how to work with paitients, medical terms, In depth information i didnt know about the human anatomy and more.Things i learned were things that would help me outside of the class as well. First day before getting to class i had no idea that ¨Health Occupation¨ would mean like everything i learned while in this class, i thought it was going to be a more advance health class like the one i took my freshman year. Until i saw the teacher in scrubs i knew it would have to do with hospital stuff. I didnt think anything to detailed about what we would learn , just things that nurses do in the hospital and how to prepare for that. I am happy
