Nursing and healthcare offers many exciting and demanding career possibilities. This semester you will have the opportunity to gain some clinical experiences that will take you closer to your career goal. Congratulations on this important choice and good luck with your studies!

Welcome Students & Faculty!

Regulatory agencies require that employees and ANY individual providing patient care in healthcare facilities review specific content related to safety and professional healthcare practice annually to maintain compliance with regulatory mandates and insure overall quality patient care. This has often resulted in redundant orientation programs for students and faculty each semester as each facility presented this required content to each clinical group.

To streamline your orientation process and reduce these redundant orientation sessions, the clinical facility(ies) that you have been assigned to this semester utilize(s) an online orientation program developed by the Tennessee Clinical Placement System (TCPS©). This content provides the required general orientation that is foundational to all healthcare practice. You can expect clinical facilities to add to this content any organization-specific information that best prepares you to provide patient care in their facility. It may be done online or in a classroom setting. Be sure and check with your instructor for any additional facility-specific requirements.
