Guest Status

You are a guest of the site and preceptor, please act accordingly.

Students are expected to arrive promptly and be prepared to fully engage in their clinical experience. Tardiness and uncommunicated absences are unprofessional and not allowed.
Set clear expectations with your preceptor so that you can get the most out of each experience but do not feel pressured to practice outside your scope as a student.
Abide by HIPAA: it can’t be said enough, do not leave your site with any identifying information.

Communication

Always use your SPU email account for communication. It is our expectation that you check your SPU email daily.
Be proactive by asking questions.
Communicate with Clinical Placement Coordinator, Maddie Richardson, regarding times of limited internet access (e.g. vacations over breaks, mission trips, etc.)
Communicate any absences due to illness or emergencies to both your preceptor and faculty.

Your Typhon schedule must be kept up to date, including your preceptor and site for each scheduled day.
Case Logs must be completed for each patient interaction (similar to chart notes).
Time Logs must be completed for each day in internship.
Preceptors, students, and faculty will complete evaluations through Typhon near the end of each quarter.
Students are expected to monitor upcoming expiration notifications through Typhon and submit required documentation to remain eligible to enter clinical sites.
