An update for Healthcare Workers Designed to facilitate the orientation
and mandatory updating of hospital staff, this video/print program helps
to ensure compliance in crucial hospital-assessment areas such as OSHA
Bloodborne Standard, Tuberculosis guidelines, and JCAHO Mandatory Updates.

Dangers of Smoking Anatomical
Chart - Laminated This chart discusses and illustrates the common
dangers of smoking: chronic bronchitis, emphysema, lung cancer, bladder
cancer, stroke, mouth and throat cancer, heart disease, gastric ulcer,
and fetal risk. Illustrations and descriptions compare a healthy lung
to a smoker's lung. ©2003
Smoking & Human Physiology
Every thirteen seconds someone dies from a smoking-related disease.
This program parallels the addictive and destructive nature of cigarettes
with other drugs. It employs dramatic statistics and "inner body" photography
to show just how serious a problem cigarette smoking is. Viewers will
be riveted as a tiny camera follows cigarette smoke into a human lung
and, in an especially moving sequence, records the reaction of a fetus
exposed to danger if its mother inhales cigarette smoke. To replace
the people who die each year from smoking, the tobacco industry must
recruit 7,000 new smokers a day, current targets are young people and
people of the third world. ©1993 Grades 4-12 Adult
Tobacco and Human Physiology
In a university laboratory, Dr. Mark Robinson explains the physiological
effects of smoke on the human body. He describes the effects of both
smoke and smokeless tobacco, shows how the human respiratory system
