I work for VUMC; do I need to complete additional safety training, background checks and immunization records?
Yes. The school is part of the Tennessee Clinical Placement System (TCPS) and the safety training is standardized for State-wide clinical sites. Our clinical requirements for the School differ from the requirements at the Medical Center, because we have clinical affiliation agreements with a wide variety of clinical sites throughout the United States. We must meet the requirements stipulated in these contractual agreements. Your immunizations and criminal background checks are the property of the Medical Center. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act 1996 (HIPAA) does not allow Occupational Health or Human Resources to share your personal information.
