Arrival to Clinic / Shift Start Time:

Interns are expected to arrive at least 15 minutes before the beginning of a shift to set up their treatment rooms and prepare for their first patient. If a patient is scheduled at 8:30, it is expected the intern will arrive by 8:15 be ready to begin the assessment promptly at 8:30.

Pre-shift setup is not documented on the intern’s time card; time may only be allocated from the beginning of the shift to the completion of the shift. It is however, part of the outcome measures and student evaluation.
