Health and Safety

Additionally, it is not uncommon for a fieldwork site to require our students to be onboarded and compliant with the CPNW Clinical Passport to which we align our requirements. 足彩app哪个是正规的refore, upon admission and in preparation to enroll in our Fieldwork and Capstone coursework, students must complete and stay current with our Health and Safety requirements throughout enrollment in the program.
