RESPONSIBILITIES
1. In case of emergency or illness,
the student is expected to notify the faculty member as early as possible prior
to the scheduled clinical experience.
2. Clinical Absences: lost clinical classes should be made-up within 2 weeks.
Because attendance in clinical laboratories is
extremely important and the number of days is limited, there should be no
absences for clinical labs. The following provisions for makeup are as follows:
For the first absence and permission of the
instructor, the student will complete a clinical make-up paper. Any additional
absences will result in an unsatisfactory in the course.
1.
Clinical conferences are considered an essential component of
the clinical experience and attendance is required. Students are expected to budget time to allow
for prompt attendance at conferences. Students
are evaluated on participation in conferences.
2.
Students are expected to be present, on time, and prepared
for all scheduled clinical experiences. Specific expectations regarding
clinical preparation follow.
3.
Faculty reserves the right to deny clinical access or to
consider clinical performance unsatisfactory at any time during the rotation if
a student is determined to be unprepared with pre-clinical assignments. Please
refer to policy for Unsafe Clinical Practice in student handbook.
4.
For some pediatric settings, street clothes are
appropriate. The student is expected to
select professional dress consistent with expectations of the facility. For all others the uniform is required. One exception for the pediatric areas is the
addition of colored or patterned jackets or aprons over a uniform which
otherwise adheres to previously stated regulations. This modification is not required, but is
permitted if the student so desires.

It is the responsibility of the student to inform the faculty
member of any circumstance that warrants the extension of special
accommodations in the clinical settings.
