This class, which is offered as an independent module in the Management of the Critically Ill Patient series, is designed for the healthcare professional who is taking care of patients across the continuum in multiple settings, such as the emergency department, critical care unit, medical/surgical units and home care. Healthcare professionals new to critical care or preparing for positions in critical care, experienced critical care nurses who desire a review and healthcare professionals working in multiple settings or home health who wish to enhance their current knowledge and assessment skills will find the content of this course useful. The facilitator is an experienced nurse educator in Des Moines.

Call for details, or visit our website: / Water Pipe Sizing for Plumbers (online) This online course covers the most commonly used UPC method of sizing water distribution systems as described in Code sections This is the sizing that will be used in the course you are beginning. It should be noted that the Uniform Plumbing Code offers three other ways to size water piping systems. Appendix A is useful in sizing larger systems, especially if the water supply fixture units and length limits in Table 6-6 are exceeded. Appendix L allows for separate fixtures in a bathroom to be sized as a group. This allows for large apartment complexes and condos to be more economically sized. Footnote three in Table 6-5 permits fixtures, in branches that are supplied with both hot and cold piping, to be assigned 75 percent of their Table 6-5 values. The benefit, in larger installations is cost savings that could result from smaller pipe sizes being required. The authority having jurisdiction should be consulted before using any option other than the standard sizing method.

They can be used to check the heart s general health and electrical activity, and to look for signs of heart disease, heart attack, effects of medication or causes of unexplained chest pain. This noncredit course includes important practice and background information on the anatomy and physiology of the heart, medical disease processes, medical terminology, medical ethics, and legal aspects of patient contact. Students will practice with EKG equipment and perform hands-on labs including introduction to the function and proper use of the EKG machine, and other clinical practices.
