CPP -Clinical Preparedness Permit 

The School of Nursing is committed to the safety and well-being of students and clients. Students are required to attain and maintain required certifications/immunization standards outlined in the practice standards/legislative requirements. 

Students are required to complete a Clinical Preparedness Permit (CPP) to be eligible to enter clinical practice. A CPP serves to ensure that students have the necessary up-to-date immunizations, Basic Life Support – BLS Provider certificate, respiratory fit testing and Police Record Check with Vulnerable Sector Screen (VSS), prior to entering into their clinical placement. It is the student’s responsibility to complete and maintain this document prior to their first clinical placement (Semester 2). Students are required to update their CPP, as appropriate, for each semester. All required documents for CPP must be valid and may not expire at any time during the semester. The student is responsible for maintaining and updating all documents and certificates as per the requirements detailed below.
