Due to the number of students in this course there will be limited time for

clinical make-up. The course requires 135 hours of clinical time and students are expected to complete assigned times. Students are also expected to be prepared for the clinical experience. Any student that is late or is not prepared will be told to leave clinical and given an unsatisfactory in clinical for that day.
