An Introduction to Medical Terminology short course delivered online via Teams, suitable for anyone wishing to learn the basics of terminology. Dates of courses can be seen when clicking ‘register’ below. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Level One – Introduction to Medical Terminology. > “It's like a light has just been switched on and I now understand more of what > I'm doing!” – Feedback from attendee of Level one course. This course is aimed at anyone who requires a knowledge of medical terminology in their role. It is suitable for administrative staff, health care workers, medical secretaries, managers, Allied Health Professionals, essentially anyone who may encounter medical terminology and wishes to develop their medical terminology knowledge further. We also offer sessions to those requiring an overview of medical terminology to support applications to study medicine, veterinary medicine or dentistry. We can train between 1-30 learners from any organisation. If you have a specific training request, please speak to us and we can accommodate your needs. We recently trained a group of sign language interpreters who found the training invaluable when working in medical environments. The sessions are delivered via Teams (2x 2 hour meetings) so are highly accessible, a webcam and microphone are required although not essential. The aim of the course is for learners to develop an understanding of medical terminology in an enjoyable, interactive and informative way so that they are better able to decipher and unravel the mystery of long medical words. The course covers the following topics:- * Basics of medical terminology – word building * Common Roots, prefixes and suffixes * Anatomy and physiology via a virtual tour of the body * Major bones of the body * Prescription writing and abbreviations * Classification of drugs * Common Abbreviations * Instruments and investigations * Medical Specialities and personnel * Blood tests At the end of the course students will have a clear understanding of medical terminology and are encouraged to use their newly learned skills in a series of quizzes and interactive games. All attendees are given a Certificate of Attendance and a comprehensive handout. Many people who attend these courses are keen to develop their skills further and may wish to proceed to the Level Two Intermediate Award in Medical Terminology. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MEDICAL TERMINOLOGY TRAINING COURSES Established in 2006 and the UK’s largest provider of medical terminology training, we offer a range of courses to suit your needs from beginner through to advanced level. Our bespoke courses have been designed to suit the needs of healthcare professionals incorporating relevant terminology and content to directly benefit the workplace.

Working with young volunteers Tuesday 18 June, 10am-12.30pm Would you like to work with young volunteers in your organisation? About this event During this training session, we will be exploring all aspects of how to work with young volunteers, from recruitment and logistics to safeguarding. This webinar will be led by Eleanor Moore the Sustainable Volunteering Officer with the Museum Development South West Programme. Her background is in social and community history curatorship and advisory work within the museums sector, with experience of managing volunteer teams. She will be joined by Sebastian Amos, Chair of Trustees and Adam Marsden, Young Volunteer at Transport Museum Wythall and Rania Nur, former Young Volunteer, now Trustee at the Museum of the Home. They will be sharing case studies about the young volunteer programmes in their organisations. The session will help delegates to: * understand the importance of this work * think about how to develop young volunteer roles * gain inspiration from case studies to take your own work forward * understand good practice around safeguarding and young volunteers. Take a look at the full schedule. [https://kidsinmuseums.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Working-with-young-volunteers-session-schedule-final.pdf] This training event will be delivered virtually on Zoom over one half-day session (two hours and 30 minutes with a short break). Who should attend? This training is aimed at staff who work in museums, art galleries and heritage sites who are interested in developing or improving their provision for young volunteers. Voluntary volunteer co-ordinators, whose main role is to lead day-to-day on the involvement of volunteers and/or young people, would also benefit from this session.
