Clinical Clearance Requirements

In preparation for their clinical experience, students are strongly encouraged to review the Clinical Clearance Requirements forms, which are available from the Surgical Technology/Surgical Processing Department. Clinical affiliates are becoming more stringent regarding health clearance documentation, and the absence of required documentation could delay or prohibit clinical placement.

Students are responsible for providing clinical clearance forms to the Clinical Coordinator by Friday of week 6 of the semester preceding the first clinical course.  Students who fail to submit health forms in their totality by this due date will be withdrawn from the clinical course and a course designation of WF will be assigned. All students are encouraged to retain copies of all documentation presented to the Clinical Coordinator. The Surgical Technology/Surgical Processing Department reserves the right to make administrative changes to clinical placements as necessary.
