Criminal Background Check

ALLIED HEALTH AND NURSING STUDENTS

IMPORTANT NOTICE

The health program’s curricular criteria and academic standards for courses and program achievement require students to complete clinical assignments and training at clinical sites. In accordance with our clinical affiliations, all students present at a hospital/clinical affiliation site must complete criminal background check. A criminal record may make you ineligible to participate in a clinical assignment. The resulting reports will be disclosed to field placement agencies, hospitals, and clinicals. Clinical affiliations may also require that students pass a drug screening before accepting them. Any and all cost associated with the aforementioned screenings will be borne by the Student. Further, all fees paid for criminal record checks are non-refundable.

Failure to comply with procedures will result in termination of program sequencing and dismissal from the nursing and allied health program or certificate.
