Students must have their intern license with them when reporting to a rotation site.

Bloodborne Pathogens Safety
Students must observe infectious disease prevention policies of the rotation site as well as Universal Precautions to prevent contact with blood and other potentially infectious materials.
Prior to rotations, students must complete Blood Borne Pathogen Safety training presented by the UA Department of Risk Management. Students also receive an "AHSC Prompt Medical Attention Card" with instructions to follow in the event of a blood/bodily fluid exposure.
Site Specific Requirements
In addition to the above items, rotation sites may have additional paperwork and requirements (i.e. additional background checks, drug screening, site orientations, etc.) for students to complete in order to register into the site. Students should contact their preceptors or the student coordinator at an upcoming rotation site at least two weeks prior to the start of a scheduled rotation in order to find out what the site needs.
