Matriculated students shall be required to maintain adequate health in the interest of patient welfare and others, including but not limited to appropriate immunizations as outlined in the Admissions Policies. A student will not be allowed to participate in clinical experiences, including lab, or progress in the program unless the student is compliant at all times.
Matriculated students are required to purchase accident insurance through the College. The cost will be billed to the students on an annual basis. Details of the plan are available from the Bursar.
In an effort to protect the College community and clinical sites, exposure to any communicable disease must be reported to prevent further spread of the disease. Students will report any exposure to communicable disease to the dean for consideration of possible change of clinical assignment. The dean will document the exposure with follow up action taken which will be filed in the student’s record.
All student health information will be held in the strictest confidence.
