Central Maine Medical Center (CMMC) Clinical Instructions

ACTION STEP #1:    Complete CCPS (Centralized Clinical Placement System)

1. • 1. • Students NEW to CCPS 

          • 1. Go to https://www.mass.edu/mcncps/orientation/welcome.asp.

            2. In the top right click "login/register" and register as a new student user with your @maine.edu account.

            3. The site will guide you through completing four education modules.  Each module consists of information to read and then a module quiz.  These modules may take you several hours to complete, but you can leave and return, doing this in smaller chunks of time if you need to.  You must complete all four module quizzes.

            4. Once you have completed all four module quizzes see a page with a blue box at the bottom.  In the blue box click on "click here to add an assignment to the list".

            5. Fill in the information about your clinical assignment.   You can leave the "click here if this is a precepted assignment" box empty.  Then submit the form.

            6. Now you will see a page with CMMC specific information.  At the bottom of the page highlighted in yellow is a link "Central Maine Medical Center".  Click on it.

            7. You can now read all of the CMMC specific documents.  

            8. IMPORTANT:  at the bottom of the CMMC page there is an acknowledgment and checkbox you must submit to indicate you have reviewed all the documents.  Submitting this will generate a "ticket" of completion that shows you've finished CCPS for that facility.  

               1. • You do not need to print or save this ticket.  USM can see who has them in CCPS from our end of things.

            9. Action Step #2 below lists the documents you'll need to fill out and submit to USM.

          • 1. Go to https://www.mass.edu/mcncps/orientation/welcome.asp and login to your existing CCPS account.

            2.  If it has been more than a year since you last completed the four CCPS modules/quizzes you will need to complete them again.  If it has been less than a year you won't need to redo the modules and you'll be taken directly to the "add a clinical assignment to the list" page.

            3. In the blue box choose "click here to add an assignment to the list".

            4. Fill in the information about your clinical assignment.   You can leave the "click here if this is a precepted assignment" box empty.  Then submit the form.

ACTION STEP #2:    Submit Your Documents to USM.  Download the following 4 documents from CCPS.

1. IMPORTANT - return the files in the same format you opened them.  Ex. if the file is a .word document you must complete it and email it back as a word document.  Do not convert anything to a PDF that isn’t already a PDF.  The hospital will not accept it.

   • CMHC Confidentiality Agreement:  the last page needs check and signature

   • Student Handbook Acknowledgement Form:  the last page needs check and signature

   • CMH Student Badge/Parking application: this is how they create your badges, so this is required even if you don't expect to park. (USM will submit your photo.)

   • Influenza Form:  need to fill out the form AND attach vaccine documentation to that form- you can send these as two separate documents if it's not easy to combine them into one file.  ***ONLY Students in Placements in OCTOBER thru MARCH Must provide the attached vaccine documentation. IGNORE proof of vaccination if you are in a placement outside of that timeframe.
