The individual components of the system are integrated and inter-related in such a way that one rein forces another to increase the efficiency of the learning process. At the end of the course, a series of objective questions tests the stident's knowledge of the subject material.

The basic subjects pro. vide general knowledge of value to the nurse who will be working in the coronary care unit. Other material im- parts specific knowledge re- lated to certain other groups. Thus parts of the course can be used for training of sur- gical, medical, emergency & recovery room nurses. Other groups such as registered nur- ses assistants, ECG technic- ians, may also participate in certain parts of'the training program. There are additional series of teaching programs which have been developed and can be added at a later date. These include: 1. Basics in health care 2. Nurses aid, orderly & attendant series 3. Housekeeping personnel series 4. Food service employee series Other series are in the developmental stage and will cover the newest and-most worthwhile developments in communication, education and management systems to both medical and para- medical groups as well as administration.
