This field training workbook is used as a quick reference manual for supportive care as well as guidance for the total skills competency required of medical personnel. In addition to providing the most concise information for consistent training and efficient learning, this text also provides guidance for diagnostics and self-testing. It is an indispensable tool in preparing for both standardized competencies testing and real-world practice of medical skills. The materials combined in this book provide complete, easily understandable, and well-planned learning tools for both military and civilian students. The nation’s nursing and medical staff shortage continues to have the potential to negatively impact the quality and safety of patient care both in civilian and military medical treatment facilities. Insufficient Army nursing capacity and in some cases low density specialties can threaten the viability of current and future AMEDD missions. The United States Army is recognized internationally as the standard for complete, efficient and effective adult education. The Army has a tradition of pioneering training systems that then transition into the corporate civilian sector. This manual has been continuously tested and updated to successfully educate every member of the modern United States Army Medical Department (AMEDD). Included Documents and Features: Bacteriology 1.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor:
Following in the footsteps of Gordon Allport, all of Mindy J. Allport-Settle's books are built on a foundation of psychology and sociology with a focus on improving some aspect of industry through research and education. Her career in healthcare began when she was a teenager working as an emergency medical technician. Since then, she has joined the U.S. Navy's advanced hospital corps, worked in organ and human tissue procurement, specialized in ophthalmology, and moved on to serve as a key executive, board member, and consultant for some of the best companies in the pharmaceutical, medical device, and biotechnology industry. She has provided guidance in regulatory compliance, corporate structuring, restructuring and turnarounds, new drug submissions, research and development and product commercialization strategies, and new business development. Her experience and dedication have resulted in international recognition as the developer of the only FDA-recognized and benchmarked quality systems training and development business methodology. Her education includes a Bachelor's degree from the University of North Carolina, an MBA in Global Management from the University of Phoenix, and completion of the corporate governance course series in audit committees, compensation committees, and board effectiveness at Harvard Business School.
