Medical Theory and Practice Curriculum

The Medical Theory and Practice high school curriculum has two purposes:  

  • To be used as a resource to create an a-g approved academic capstone course OR a CTE/ROP course for your health pathway program.  
  • To be used as a resource for your current health pathway courses  

The curriculum is meant to be comprehensive, covering topics that would be present in a general Healthcare Essentials course along with the National Healthcare Foundation Standards. In addition, the curriculum focuses on the 5 career clusters:

  • Therapeutic services
  • Diagnostic services
  • Health informatics
  • Support services
  • Biotechnology research and development.
