Info

Clinical Educationexperiences and USA PT polo shirts must be worn to PT clinical experiences. Shirts MUST be of a lengththat can be tucked into your pants and remain in your pants if you were to raise your hands above yourhead (jumping jacks).Failure to adhere to the clinical dress code while on clinical affiliation experiences will be consideredan act of professional misconduct and will result in subsequent referral to the University ProfessionalMisconduct Committee.Cell Phone PolicyCell phones are to be off during clinical hours except with prior approval of the Clinical Instructor orSupervisor for emergency purposes.Traveling/Living ExpensesStudents should expect to travel outside for their full-time clinical affiliation experiences. Students areresponsible for providing their own transportation and living expenses during all clinical affiliationexperiences. In some cases, the site may be able to assist the student with locating housing. Studentsshould anticipate additional costs of approximately $4,000 for each full-time clinical affiliationexperience. The amount incurred will vary according to the location of the facility to which they areassigned.EmploymentStudents should not plan to hold outside employment while doing full-timeinternships/fieldwork/rotations. To do so seriously jeopardizes a student’s chance of success due todistractions and fatigue. Clinical instructors/fieldwork supervisors often consider a student who isworking to be less than committed to learning. The perceived need to work is not considered a hardshipby the Clinical Education Office and no effort will be made to try to place a student somewhere thatwould allow him/her to work during the internship/fieldwork/rotation.Outstanding Financial ObligationsStudent’s MUST be in good financial standing with the University at the start of the clinical affiliationexperience.

The AFWC/ACCE and University Clinical Education Committee will handlerequests on a case-by-case basis. Students may be required to submit written documentation to supporttheir complaints. Reassignments will be made through collaboration between the student and theAFWC/ACCE. All efforts will be made to salvage the experience through student and FieldworkSupervisor/Clinical Instructor counseling and education. Students requesting leave for any otherprofessional or personal reason will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis.A clinical education site reserves the right to request that a student be removed from the site for variousreasons. These will be dealt with on an individual basis with reassignments to be made at the discretion ofthe AFWC/ACCE based upon the nature of the request for removal of the student. All efforts will bemade to salvage the experience through student and Fieldwork Supervisor/Clinical Instructor counselingand education.University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences 104
