 INTRODUCTION:
It deals with the introduction to students for careers in health science fields as
well as for those who want to learn about the microscopic organisms and world
around them and their role in everyday life. This course will provide nursing
students and other healthcare professionals with vital microbiology and
parasitology information that will enable them to carry out their duties in an
informed, safe, and efficient manner. This course covers topics of particular
importance to students of health care professions including those dealing with
antibiotics and other microbial agents, epidemiology and public health, hospital-
acquired infections, infection control, how microorganisms cause disease, how
our bodies protect us from pathogens, and infectious diseases, and the major
viral, bacterial, fungal and parasitic diseases of humans
