11.1c Infectious Disease and Nursing Students

If a student has any potentially contagious disease, 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 contagious and that the student may care for clients.
