health occupations education programs. Two addendums have been developed to
supplement the Health Occupations Core Curriculum and the Nurse’s Assisting
Curriculum and are designed to be added into the current curriculum documents.

Curriculum or the Nurse’s Assisting Curriculum. Pages marked with page numbers
