SPECIAL PROVISIONS

Placement agencies reserve the right to establish additional or more specific onboarding requirements beyond Seneca Nanji Foundation School of Nursing standard Clinical Preparedness requirements. These special provisions are implemented to comply with agency policies, accreditation standards, provincial legislation and the health and safety of patients, residents, students, and staff.

Special provisions may vary by placement site and are subject to change without notice. Examples include, but are not limited to:

• Additional health screening requirements (e.g., 2-step TB skin testing).

• Specific validity periods for clinical clearance documents (e.g., Vulnerable Sector Screening issued within a specified timeframe).

• Additional occupational health documentation.

• Site-specific orientation, training, or mandatory education.

• Mask fit testing for a specific respirator model.

• Proof of immunizations or documentation beyond Seneca's minimum requirements.

• Other onboarding requirements identified by the placement agency.

Students will be notified of any placement-specific requirements once their placement has been confirmed. It is the student's responsibility to complete all required documentation and onboarding activities by the deadlines established by the placement agency.

Please note that Seneca Nanji Foundation School of Nursing cannot waive, modify, or override requirements established by placement agencies. Failure to meet agency-specific requirements may result in a delay, reassignment, or inability to participate in the clinical placement.
