Criminal History, Criminal Background Check, Random Screening for Substance Abuse
If accepted, you will be afforded clinical opportunities to care for patients. We must inquire about your criminal history, since we are providing you access to patients through our affiliating clinical agencies. We will be asking you for a criminal background check and may ask for random biometric screening for substance abuse (example - urine sample, blood sample). Refusal to submit to a criminal background check or random drug screening, if asked, is grounds for program dismissal.
