<p style="max-width:70em !important;">As a practice discipline, clinical experience is an important and integral part of learning.  It is during these experiences that socialization to the profession, exposure to the interprofessional teams, self-organization, and clinical competencies are advanced to demonstrate safe, quality patient, family, and community-centered care.  Clinical competency must be validated, therefore, absence from clinical learning is discouraged except under urgent or emergent circumstances.</p>

<p style="max-width:70em !important;">Students who are absent from their clinical experience, which should only occur in the event of urgent or emergent life event, will be expected to:</p>

<li>Make up the clinical hours to the extent possible by taking responsibility to work with the clinical faculty member and/or, with the help of the faculty, the clinical agency where the clinical experiences take place.</li>

<li>Make up the clinical hours by the end of the semester in which they occur.</li>

</ol>

===Procedure===

<p style="max-width:70em !important;">The procedure for such clinical make-up is determined by the Course Coordinator and/or Clinical Instructor.</p>
