Mr. Murphy

Mr. Murphy is best known for his curriculum development. Utilizing his years of experience in the field of Human Services, and his education, he is able to impart a sound knowledge base from which the students can gain a strong clinical/medical sense. His interests include Physiology, Pathology, Neurology, and Psychology.

When designing the Anatomy and Physiology course, he drew his content and focus from Chiropractors who go into more detail in the Skeletal, Muscular, and Nervous systems. In addition, he drew from the general focus of 2 local colleges which are strong in allied health (medical assistants, nursing, exercise physiology, etc.). Finally, he pulled from his long extensive experience in the field of Human Services where psychology, cognitive, physical, and genetic disorders permeate. He integrated this experience also into the anatomical and physiological aspect of the course.

What started as a hygiene course in response to the "universal precautions initiative" emanating from the late 1980's, has evolved into a pathology course. Mr. Murphy developed the Hygiene and Pathology course which provided a sound clinical education.
