OBSERVATION EDUCATIONAL PLAN
SCHEDULE RESPONSE
ATTENDANCE/TARDINESS
Absence from Clinic Clinical internships are based upon a forty or more work hour week. The schedules are determined by each facility. Students are required to follow the schedule provided by the clinical facility. Each student will verify schedule with the facility two weeks prior. Weekly hours in the clinic must total at least 40 hours per week. Lunch time is determined by the CI and is not counted in the weekly clinical hours. Students must document their hours each week on a time sheet. Time sheets must be signed by the clinical instructor weekly and turned in to Canvas at midterm and final. Students are responsible for arriving at the clinical site on time. Tardiness may result in a grade of F (fail) for professional behavior. Similarly, students must not leave the clinical site prior to the scheduled departure time. Late arrival or early departure will be considered and made up as follows: • Late arrival to clinical up to 30 minutes=4- hour time deduction
• Late arrival to clinical >30 minutes=8-hour time deduction • Leaving clinic early up to 4 hours=4-hour time deduction • Leaving clinic early >4 hour=8-hour time deduction If unable to attend a clinical due to any circumstances, the student must call the clinical site and the ACCE at least one hour prior to starting time. If the ACCE is not available, the student must contact the Program Director. The last resort is to leave a message for the ACCE and email the ACCE. Any time missed during the clinical education must be made up. This must first be approved by the ACCE and/or Program Director. Upon approval, the student is responsible for scheduling make-up time that is convenient for the CI and clinical site. The ACCE must be notified as to the schedule of the make-up time. Documentation from the clinical faculty must be provided stating that the student was at the clinical site for the required time.
