Save a Life: Go Back to School

When bad things happen, often we are left wondering, “How we can help? How can one person make a difference?” 

The answer is simple: get an education.

This year, we are bringing new programs to Labouré to educate more world-changers, life-savers, and do-gooders. These five unique certificate programs can be completed quickly so you can get to working changing lives.

Vascular Sonography

How do Vascular Sonographers help?

Our bodies are made up of intricate blood vessels that must have proper circulation in order to work properly. Vascular/Doppler sonography provides a non-invasive way to detect stenosis, atherosclerosis, blood clots (DVT), venous insufficiency, evaluation of stents and grafts, and blood flow perfusion abnormalities.

Intraoperative Neuromonitoring

How do Intraoperative Neuromonitorists help?

Intraoperative Neuromonitorists are a patient’s guardian angel in the OR. When a patient is under anesthesia during a surgery or procedure, the neuromonitorist is constantly checking signals from a patient’s nervous system for signs of oxygen loss to the brain or stroke potential so that they can immediately alert the surgeon. In a situation where every second counts, the presence of a neuromonitorist during surgery has become invaluable and is increasing the demand for certified IONM professionals in the operating room.

Nutrition and Dietetic Technician Certificate

How do Nutrition and Dietetic Technicians help?

Nutrition and Dietetic Technicians provide crucial support to patients and healthcare teams who are trying to address the causes and prevent conditions like obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. They offer counseling to clients on the connection between food and health, teach nutrition classes, and so much more. .

Online Medical Coding Certificate

How do Medical Coders help? 

Medical coders support healthcare facilities through the translation of medical reports into more efficient, user-friendly codes in order to facilitate the archiving and use of medical records and billing. Though medical coders do not work directly with patients, healthcare delivery would come to a standstill without their constant, diligent, and accurate work.

Online Clinical Documentation Improvement

How do Clinical Document Improvement Specialists help?

Clinical Documentation Improvement Practitioners and Clinical Documental Specialists work behind the scenes to improve the efficiency and delivery of healthcare. A CDI professional represents healthcare services through complete and accurate reporting of diagnoses and procedures. Many nurses and other healthcare workers have found CDI as a great career addition or transition.
