As a continuation of the CTE Health Science pathway, Health Science II helps students expand their understanding of the health care industry. This includes employability skills, safety and infection control procedures, and clinical skills used by allied health professionals. Students will demonstrate their understanding of cardiovascular and respiratory systems by applying BLS CPR skills.
This buying guide was developed to help teachers with hands-on labs, materials, and content for the foundational course of Health Science II, a gateway course for health science career pathways.
Career pathways include:
The following equipment and PPE linked below may be needed for particular items listed in the buying guide.
Communicable diseases are spread from person to person by way of contact with blood or bodily fluids, an airborne virus, or bites from an insect. They are caused by pathogens, including viruses, bacteria, fungi, and protozoa. Learners analyze and understand communicable disease pathology, treatment, and prevention.
Investigate infectious diseases safely with this laboratory case study kit. It was created by scientists at the Center for Translational Science Education at Tufts University. It provides students with a robust learning experience that addresses antibiotic resistance, a real medical problem facing hospitals around the world.
This colorful poster brings viruses up close and personal—without the threat of contamination! It shows the 3-dimensional structure of these well-known viruses: adenovirus, the virus that causes hand, foot, and mouth disease; tobacco mosaic; influenza; HIV; smallpox; Ebola; and bacteriophage P22.
A 21st-century incubator that operates much like your oven at home, but built for your classroom.
The DigiVu™ DVM 6.0 combines the latest in digital imaging technology with a high-quality microscope specifically designed for educational use.
To prevent contamination from pathogens, learners will understand infection control and aseptic procedures.
The Glo Box blocks ambient light, providing a vivid display of artificial germs, and features a soft, foldable shell for flat storage and transport. This visual tool is a perfect way to teach proper hand washing, aseptic techniques, and general infection control protocols.
The respiratory system—consisting of lungs, conducting airways, and the diaphragm—is responsible for gas exchange in the body. Learners analyze and understand the structures, functions, and disorders of this system.
Realistic depiction of human lung with open dissection to show internal routing of pulmonary arteries, veins, and airways. Pleura and lymph nodes are well represented.
Classical bell jar model demonstrates the role of diaphragmatic contraction in causing the lungs to inflate.
Explore mammalian anatomy of the thoracic and upper abdominal organs using the preserved sheep pluck with liver. This preserved sheep specimen includes the 4-chambered heart with a portion of the aorta, lungs with a portion of the trachea, and liver.
Also known as the cardiovascular system, the circulatory system circulates blood through the body by way of blood vessels—arteries, capillaries, and veins. Learners analyze and understand the structures, functions, and disorders of this system.
Carolina’s Perfect Solution® Pig Heart, packed in a pail. Plain: No color injection. Price listed is for 1 specimen. Carolina’s Perfect Solution®—an alternative to formaldehyde—is a revolutionary fixative that produces superior specimens while improving the safety of your classroom or lab. Tissues and organs are extremely lifelike and retain better color and texture than with other preparations.
This generalized representation of the human circulatory system includes a 2-part heart, lungs, liver, spleen, kidneys, and circuitry of the pulmonary and systemic circulatory pathways.
Building on the first responder skills learned in the Health Science I course, learners apply BLS CPR skills to respond to respiratory and cardiovascular emergencies.
Make CPR training and practice simple with this cost-effective manikin. Landmarks for proper hand placement are palpable throughout its vinyl skin. Its face shield lung system allows for use without cleaning, disinfecting, or disassembly. The manikin’s chest rises with rescue breaths to verify ventilation. A rate light shows when proper compression rate is reached, and a second light shows correct depth of compression with proper release.
The Life/form® CPR manikin is a dramatic, inexpensive, and state-of-the-art manikin designed for teaching the life-saving techniques of CPR. It offers a realistic and affordable way to provide each student with his/her own CPR manikin. The 1-piece, disposable lung/mouth protection system makes this manikin completely sanitary—there is no risk of cross contamination and no need to sanitize the manikin after use!
Carolina has the kits and supplies needed for your CTE students to master the essential knowledge and workplace skills required for careers in the health care industry.
