In a worst-case scenario for students who are missing specific immunizations, completing these requirements can take up to 6 months. For students with current immunization records the average time to prepare all ParaMed documentation is 6-12 weeks. If you are not cleared by the placement deadline, you will not be eligible for placement. This will prolong your graduation and may result in additional fees.

Please contact the Pre-Placement Planning Coordinator immediately.

At the end of your visit, you will need copies of all supporting documentation: the completed Clinical/Field Pre-Placement Health Form, your yellow immunization card and/or municipal/regional health unit documentation denoting a record of your immunization history and blood test results if applicable.

All items on this form are required for placement. It will be your responsibility to impress upon the health care provider that if you don’t have this, you cannot be cleared for field placement and will not be able to participate in this mandatory program course.

You are welcome to make an appointment with the closest Campus Health Centre. If you are outside the region, please visit a local walk-in clinic.

Section A of your forms cover all the medical requirements as outlined by your academic facility and your field placement facility/organization. It is your health care provider’s responsibility to complete and sign all the areas on section A where it requires his/her signature. These are the shaded areas. While they will guide you through what will be required from you in the process, it will be your responsibility to make sure the health care provider completes all the shaded areas required and provide you with the proof of the identified immunizations and blood test results.

If your program requires a current CPR and Standard First Aid Level C certificate, it must be completed through a Red Cross, St. John’s Ambulance, or equivalent First Aid course. You should be able to find an offering in your area by doing a quick Google search for “CPR and Standard First Aid Level C + your city/town.”

This course must be completed in-person to be valid, while blended options are approved online only first aid certification will not be accepted.

Some districts will require a letter from the college indicating why you require a Criminal Background Check with Vulnerable Sector Screening. If you require a letter, please complete the letter request located on your Placement HUB in Blackboard or email placements@sl.on.ca.

You are responsible for making sure your medical and non‐medical requirements are valid for the duration of your placement. If you are in a program with more than one placement, you will need to update any expired items prior to the placement deadline.
