3.1.2 Hygiene

Interns are expected to portray professionalism. Neatness and cleanliness are imperative. The standard of being well-groomed extends to nail care, hair care (clean, styled), and body care (bathe/shower daily). The following products are prohibited in the clinic environment: cologne, perfume and fragrant oils, chewing of gum, and any tobacco products (smokers must de-permeate the odor of smoke).

Faculty clinicians may impose sanctions on interns for not complying with these standards. Sanctions may include loss of clinic hours, being sent home, being transferred to another clinic, referral to the Behavioral Standards Committee or CERP, and being suspended from clinic or the College of Chiropractic.
