ROTATIONS

School of Medicine students that are applying for away rotations will need to submit their forms to Student Health Services (SHS) to be filled out. 

To expedite your forms please:

• Submit all you rotation application forms together if possible
• Include your name and date of birth on all forms
• Note the timing required for TST or IGRA to satisfy multiple sites and avoid repeat testing
• Please allow 7 days for SHS to complete these forms. 

Once the form has been completed, the SHS Secretary will send you an e-mail and/or will notify you if further information, labs or vaccines are required.

If you are sick and need medical care while you are at an off site/away rotation, please contact your Primary Care Provider (PCP). Or, if available, you may contact an urgent care clinic in your area. (Please be sure to check your insurance coverage).

If you are in need of emergent care, please go to your closest Emergency Room.
