Phlebotomy and EKG
Community course
The phlebotomy and EKG seminar does not consist of book work or written exam, rather we collaborate with a vendor named Medical2, Inc. Medical2 provides an intense 8-hour workshop teaching the skills needed to pass the exam. Before sessions, all participants will be taught the proper handling and concepts of the procedure to be performed. Students prove competency on Medical2 specifically designed mannequins and live draws. The mannequins simulate the human antecubital region (where blood is drawn) as accurately as possible, all while providing a simulated blood return for better understanding and reinforcement of the procedure for the participant. Upon successful completion of the workshop, the participant will receive manuals by email and a national certification by mail. The certificate is available to following Monday after the course. Course included needle/syringe draws, evacuated systems, finger sticks, pediatrics, heel sticks, blood smears, butterfly needles, and to set-up and perform EKGs (Note** EKG interpretation is not taught in this course).
Defensive Driving
Community course
Our state-approved Defensive Driving Course will not only help you reduce your auto insurance rates, but it can also provide up to a 4-point reduction from your driving record. By completing this course, you are eligible for a mandatory 10% reduction in your insurance premiums for 3 years!
Pharmacology
Community course
Pharmacology is often described as a bridge science because it incorporates knowledge and skills from several basic science disciplines including physiology, biochemistry and cell and molecular biology. SIEMT offers a basic pharmacology course that is between 2-4 hours depending on the audience and includes a summative examination. We explain the basics of pharmacology, pharmacodynamics, measurements, percentages, doses of various drugs.
EKG
Community course
An electrocardiogram records the electrical signals in the heart. Also abbreviated as an EKG or ECG, an electrocardiogram is a common and painless test used to quickly detect heart problems and monitor the heart’s health. Based on what an EKG shows, a healthcare provider may be able to treat a potential life threatening arrythmia and limit dame to the patient and/or heart muscle. SIEMT EKG courses can be tailored for both simply performing EKGs as well as reading and interpreting the rhythms.
