[PT2021] Clinical Education Updates

[Shearin, Heidi]

Good Morning!

A few updates from the Clinical Education Team:

  *   Flu shots are due October 2nd
     *   We have received an email from a classmate asking about uploading your flu shots into Exxat.  Please hold onto your proof of vaccination until the new portal is available in Exxat for your medical records.
     *   Exxat has your required records but has not yet completed the portal.
  *   DPT 802 & 804
     *   Ms. Shewmaker is finalizing the remaining slot requests and has been communicating with individual students on status of assignment.
     *   If a change occurs with your placement, you will be notified to begin the search for an alternate slot


  *   Future training needs
     *   Later in the fall you will receive a link for the annual HIPAA and BBP training.  This is done online.
     *   CPR: we are evaluating the most practical method for achieving compliance with CPR training while large group events are not allowed.


  *   Good news:
     *   We are thankful that labs are progressing which allows us to stay on track for attending clinicals.
     *   Most clinics are back in business with primarily in-person treatments.

Thank you all for your flexibility!

Ms. Shewmaker, Dr. Eubanks and Dr. Shearin

Subject: Clinical Education Updates

Dear Students,

The Clinical Education Team wants to update you on several important items related to your clinicals next year.  We want to respect your concerns about having timely information during this period of going virtual.  Items for review or action:

  *   Placements for DPT 802 and 804
     *   Ms. Shewmaker has sent an email updating everyone about the status of their third year clinicals.
        *   Those of you with a developing Upstream site will receive follow-up as soon as received.
     *   Remember that changes can occur but we will make every effort to find comparable slots if needed.
  *   Required action: Flu shots
     *   All students are required to have a flu shot in the fall by October 2nd.
        *   You will need to provide proof of vaccination by Monday, October 5th in the Exxat system.
        *   Several contracts for clinical partners are now mandating the due date so plan accordingly.
        *   Since we are not on campus, you can either make an appointment at the CU Health Center or go to a pharmacy or personal provider.
  *   Future training needs
     *   We will send information on necessary repeated training for CPR, HIPAA and BBP as soon as the plan is finalized.
  *   Good news:
     *   Third year clinicals are going well.  More clinical sites are reopening currently and have developed detailed COVID-19 plans to allow student participation!

Reach out with any questions or concerns.
Dr. Shearin
