Other Considerations

• Immunization:

If a student is unable to meet these requirements, their advancement in the program may be impeded, which has the potential to prevent a student from completing their program of study. Students are responsible for ensuring their compliance with these requirements.
  • The Ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux (MSSS) requires that the student’s immunization status be complete, as per the recommendations of the protocole d’immunisation du Québec (PIQ) for stagiaires, in order for the student to enter health care institutions and provide patient care.
  • It is the student’s responsibility to update their vaccinations and submit proof of vaccination in a timely manner. If documents are not written in English or French, an official translation must be provided.
• In this program, certain components require students to provide appropriate criminal record and vulnerable sector clearances. If a student is unable to meet these requirements, their advancement in the program may be impeded, which has the potential to prevent a student from completing their program of study. Students are responsible for ensuring their compliance with these requirements.
