Immunizations and Health Requirements Policy
Students who project themselves as future healthcare workers must protect their health and the health of future patients. All students at Noorda-COM must be vaccinated in accordance with the College’s guidelines in order to pursue the clinical education aspects of the curriculum. Healthcare facilities (hospitals, clinics, offices) require all contributing to patient care to be appropriately immunized to minimize patient risk. Students are expected to be knowledgeable of the current CDC guidelines for healthcare workers found on their website, www.cdc.gov.
Required Immunizations
After documenting the required immunizations for matriculation (see Admissions Policy), the following are required to be updated annually for current students:
- Tuberculosis Testing (QFT)
- Influenza immunization
This policy was reviewed and revised in March 2024. For assistance with policies and procedures, please contact Alexa Levine (adlevine@noordacom.org).
