Students shall not use PA student status to independently provide medical care outside the supervision and authorization established by applicable law, clinical-site policy, University policy, and Program requirements. The Program strongly discourages employment that interferes with academic or clinical responsibilities. Any separate NLU student employment or financial-aid requirements remain applicable. XXIII. TRAVEL TO REQUIRED CLINICAL ROTATION SITES Students are responsible for complying with NLU and PA Program requirements concerning attendance and travel to required SCPE sites. Because clinical education may occur at multiple affiliated clinical locations, students may be required to travel beyond the primary instructional location. Students are responsible for: • Arriving at assigned clinical sites on time; • Maintaining reliable transportation; • Planning adequate travel time; • Complying with clinical-site parking and access requirements; • Maintaining any required documentation; • Complying with clinical-site policies; • Making appropriate housing arrangements when required; and • Assuming personal travel and housing expenses unless the Program or University expressly states otherwise. The Program will communicate required clinical-site locations and relevant expectations as early as practicable. Students shall not independently arrange substitutions for required SCPEs without Program authorization. Concerns about clinical-site assignment, required travel, housing, transportation, or related circumstances may be brought to the Clinical Education team or Program Director.
