Health Requirements

Mount Carmel College of Nursing stipulates specific health requirements that must be met as a condition for enrollment. Students are highly encouraged to keep a personal file of health information. It is the student’s responsibility to know when health requirements and required immunizations are due. The due date of compliance items can be found in the students’ Project Concert account under their “Compliance Tab”. In general, due dates for specific items are due 30 days after the start of the first semester where students are actively enrolled.

1. New students entering Mount Carmel College of Nursing are provided information on how to upload information to Project Concert 30 days after the start of their first semester with MCCN.. This account is designed to enhance the overall academic experience for each student. It is used for ordering drug tests, uploading immunization records, ordering and storing your required background check information, and simply staying organized.

2. Student questions about uploading documents to Project Concert and other health requirements should be addressed to the program’s Clinical Compliance Coordinator or e-mail to pchelp@mccn.edu

Students who do not meet health record requirements will be prohibited from attending class and/or clinical. 

Missed clinical/lab time resulting from health requirement non-compliance is not excused and is subject to clinical/lab make up fees (refer to clinical absence policy)

Student health requirements include:

1. History and Physical – a recent (within one year of enrollment) history and physical must be completed and signed by a physician or APRN.

2. Immunization History – required immunizations must be completed prior to enrollment in a clinical course (students may continue in a course while in the process of receiving the Hepatitis B vaccine series of three).

3. TB screening.
