Infectious Disease and Nursing Students
If a student has any potentially infectious or contagious disorder (including dermatological problems), he/she is required to see a health care provider prior to participating in clinical experiences. Students may not attend clinical if they have a temperature greater than 101° degrees or persistent vomiting and/or diarrhea. The student must bring a statement from the health care provider to the clinical instructor to verify the condition is not infectious or contagious and that the student may care for clients.
