Human Resources Management vs HR in Healthcare: general HR or healthcare HR?

Pick by your program. Human Resources Management (Business 306) is general HR, and NCCRS recommends it in Human Resources Management, Management, Business, Marketing, Finance or Entrepreneurship. Human Resource Management in Healthcare (Health 303) applies HR to hospitals and health systems, and NCCRS recommends it in Healthcare Management, Finance, Hospital Administration or Human Services.

Many HR basics are in both syllabi: job design, hiring, training, pay and benefits, employment law, discipline and unions. The general course adds management theories, workplace stress, executive pay and staff sent overseas; the healthcare course adds HIPAA and patient rights, healthcare professions and careers, and telehealth. Ask your college before you count both.
