Medical Errors

This is my first online CEU course and I am beyond impressed. I really enjoyed the fact that the material was direct yes was written in a way that was not boring. I learned quite a bit in a very short period of time. I do think this should be a required course for all massage therapists especially as we become more accepted in the medical community. Great job!!

This is my first home study course from your company and I'm very pleased. I will be ordering more I'm sure. It's great!

D. Russell, LMP, NCTMB, AMTA

The reason I chose the Institute for Integrative Healthcare Studies was the ability to earn my CE online without driving to a specific location and spending extra money for gas/hotels/airfares. This course exceeded my expectations. Medical Errors material was immediately available online for me to read, and I could take the test on the same day as well. Everything was very easy and convenient. As far as my other CE, I will use the Institute for Integrative Healthcare for all of them. In overall, taking my CE online made my life so much easier!

This course opened my eyes to how big of a problem medical mistakes can be and to avoid them in my own practice.

This course should be mandatory for all licensed therapists who practice massage. This CEU brought some necessary insight on the way I want to practice. Thank you.

What a necessary course for massage therapists to educate themselves about. Our patients/clients are always talking about the medical procedures that they have had. This course informs our profession about the extent that errors occur. As a former hospital massage therapist, you never hear this from within the organization.

Shirley Williams, LMT, BCTMB
