Student Waiver for Return to Clinical Learning?

  • 1.  Student Waiver for Return to Clinical Learning?

    Posted 06-09-2020 09:36:00 AM
    Good morning - I have heard of some schools having students sign a waiver of liability as they return to learning in the clinical environment.  This is not something that we are considering and don't think the LCME would approve of such an action.  I'm curious what, if anything, other schools are doing on this front. Thanks for anything that you can share.
