Numerous textbooks are devoted to ECG interpretation. The ECG is just one test to assess the heart. History and physical examination remain the cornerstones for diagnosing heart disease. The doctor-patient discussion may uncover the potential for heart problems even if the ECG is normal.
AAFCS is the only professional association for family and consumer sciences (FCS) students and professionals from both multiple practice settings and content areas. Our members are educators, administrators and managers, human service and business professionals, researchers, community volunteers, and consultants.
But if you study family and consumer sciences at the college level, youâll find thereâs a lot more to âhome ecâ than that. Students in this major learn about child development, family relations, consumer economics, personal finance, fashion design, housing, and nutrition.
