Clinical: Clinical education is a vital component in the training of health sciences students. The college maintains a formal clinical affiliation agreement with each facility where students are sent for clinical instruction. These affiliation agreements specify requirements similar to those required of facility employees and may include health and immunization requirements, personal health insurance, mandatory HIPAA and OSHA training, criminal background checks and drug screens.
Not all facilities impose the same requirements, and these requirements may change with little or no notice. After admission to the health science program students are required to submit to a criminal background check and urine drug screen through Castlebranch.com or the school’s designee. Any dispute concerning unsatisfactory background findings or drug screen will be between the student and the party providing the service. Background checks and drug screens are to be completed on or before the date set by the student’s individual program.
Many of the facilities scrutinize the student background checks themselves and may impose stricter standards. If a facility deems that a student must be excluded from their site, the student will be unable to progress in the program. If you have any questions about this policy please contact your program director or the department chair for Health Sciences.
Licensure/Certification/Registry Eligibility: When considering whether to admit an individual into a specific program of study, the College shall take into account that federal law prohibits states from granting professional licenses to undocumented immigrants. Furthermore, graduation from a CCC&TI health science program alone does not guarantee that the student has met all eligibility requirements for licensure, certification, or registry required in order to practice in the related medical field. Prospective students should contact the appropriate agency prior to enrollment if they have any questions concerning their eligibility for credentialing examinations and legal ability to practice.
