Students may be granted electronic access to patient records on their assigned clinical unit during their normally scheduled clinical hours. An exception to this policy will be made for students assigned to CMMC units only when the student's clinical hours are conducted in simulation or other clinically-related activities on campus within the Maine College of Health Professions building.
At no time may students access patient records on any computer other than a network computer associated with the hospital/clinical site to which the student is assigned. The use of personal computers or other electronic devices for accessing patient records is forbidden.
Students reported to have accessed patient records outside their normally scheduled clinical hours or from a computer other than a clinically-assigned hospital/clinical site network computer will be dismissed from the Maine College of Health Professions.
