<p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin:0in">Dear Class,</p>
<p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin:0in"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin:0in">We hope rotation 2 is going well! As you are aware, there are a couple of storms that we need to watch closely. Due to the unpredictability of tropical storms and hurricanes<i>, everyone</i> should be tracking these
storms (not just the coastal students). Any shift in the trajectory may put you directly in the path of a storm. We ask that each of you use your own judgement in assessing your situation. You should make decisions to report to or leave from your rotation
based on your clinical site recommendations, your commute route, and your personal comfort level. Your safety is our priority. Keep in mind, if you are working a shift in a hospital, you may be safer there then at your home. Please be mindful of your shifts
based on the arrival time of the storm, and plan ahead with your preceptor. Keep the Clinical Team informed of any schedule or shift changes as we need to be able to account for everyone’s location.</p>
<p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin:0in"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin:0in">If your clinical site remains open and you feel comfortable reporting to clinic, then you should do so. If you do not feel safe, or if your site is closed, then stay home, but maintain communication with both your preceptor
and the clinical team as soon as that decision is made. Discuss exchanging cell phone numbers with your preceptor or office manager (before the storm) in case the office is closed but you need to contact each other.</p>
<p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin:0in"> </p>
<p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin:0in">Here are a few inclement weather tips/reminders:</p>
<p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin:0in"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
Fill your vehicle with gas BEFORE the storm hits<o:p></o:p></li><li class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
If AHEC housing officials evacuate residents, you must leave<o:p></o:p></li><li class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
NEVER drive through flood waters<o:p></o:p></li><li class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
CHARGE your phones and devices<o:p></o:p></li><li class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
Purchase drinking water and non-perishable food (snack bars etc)<o:p></o:p></li><li class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
Fill your bathtub with water for hand washing and to flush your toilets<o:p></o:p></li><li class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
Purchase a flashlight and batteries <o:p></o:p></li><li class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
Consider purchasing a weather radio with batteries<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p class="xxmsonormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:0in;margin-left:.5in">
<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin:0in">Any rotation time missed will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. If additional hours are required (and cannot be made up on this rotation), the Clinical Team will work with you to acquire these hours during breaks
or holidays if needed<i>. </i></p>
<p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin:0in"><i> </i></p>
<p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin:0in">Also, remember that <a href="http://campbell.edu/">Campbell.edu</a> may have important information regarding local conditions. If you have not done so already, you may sign up for campus alerts that will be delivered
to your phone at <u><span style="color:#0563C1"><a href="https://www.campbell.edu/alerts/">https://www.campbell.edu/alerts/</a></span></u> . </p>
<p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin:0in"><i> </i></p>
<p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin:0in">As we know from past experiences, these storms may be just a slight inconvenience, or they can shut rotations down for several days. Keep in mind, it is always best to hope for the best and plan for the worst- (see
attached FEMA checklist).</p>
<p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin:0in"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin:0in">Please remember that we are here for you if you have any questions or concerns.</p>
<p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin:0in"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin:0in">Stay safe and well!</p>
