Infographic: Tuberculosis

Here's another post in our series of infographics that gives the rundown on a nasty disease: Tuberculosis. This particular visual aid gives some basic information on the transmission and symptoms of the disease. This is great for anyone learning about different diseases or parents looking for more information before a TB shot.
Visual Learning: DVT

We've been stumbling across quite a few useful infographics lately, so we thought we'd keep up the trend. After finding some images related to specific diseases, we realized these might be useful for those of you who are visual learners. While you may have already listened to a lecture on these diseases, we thought this series of infographics might help solidify the information. These are also great for instructors who would like to provide more resources for students who need visual instruction.

While we love the Nursing programs and Nurse Educator's using our EHR System, we'd like to remind everyone out there that the medical/healthcare field involves more than just Doctors and Nurses. If you're a student, stay at home mom or just a regular old Joe looking for a new career, we've found some great careers that can be started after as little as 2 months of training!
