These principles, along with academic performance, guide the decisions related to academic progression, promotion, graduation, and dismissal. Students admitted to the CON are expected to maintain high standards of academic performance (Policy 5.5.18-Undergraduate Progression http://wiki.unmc.edu/CON_Undergraduate_Progression_Policy) and professional conduct. This policy addresses professional conduct.</p> | ||
<p style="margin-bottom:15px;max-width:70em !important;">Nursing students must conduct themselves in a professional manner, and demonstrate the highest concern for patients' welfare and respect for patient’s rights. In addition, they must adhere to the highest standards of intellectual integrity and honesty in their interactions with patients, colleagues, faculty and administrators. Students are expected to adhere to all standards of the UNMC, the CON, and the nursing profession, including the UNMC Code of Conduct, the Nebraska State Board of Nursing Statutes for Regulation and Licensure, the Statutes Relating to the Nebraska Uniform Credentialing Act, the Statutes Relating to the Nebraska Nurse Practice Act, and the American Nurses Association (ANA) Code of Ethics.</p> | |||
