Clinical Placements and Vaccination and CPR Requirements for Physical & Occupational Therapy

Clinical hours necessary to obtain membership in both the national associations and provincial licensing bodies for each profession are included within the professional Master's programs (M.Sc.A.(Occupational Therapy) and M.Sc.A.(Physical Therapy)). This standard is compatible with the licensing requirements in other provinces where legislation is in force.

During the course of study, students may be assigned to clinical placements outside of Montreal and/or in rural areas within the province of Quebec. Students are expected to budget for this in planning for their funding for degree completion.

All sites within the ƽÌØÎå²»ÖÐ catchment area require students to have a working knowledge of both English and French. In order to participate in the best and most varied fieldwork experiences, students are highly encouraged to prepare themselves to work in both languages. Students who are not proficient in French may need to be placed outside of Quebec, at their own expense. Such requests are strictly subject to availability and cannot be guaranteed.

Valid CPR/AED Level (Health Care Provider) certification or equivalent is required prior to going into any of the clinical affiliation placements and must be maintained throughout the professional Master’s program.

Prior to starting their first clinical course, students must ensure that their immunization records are complete and that they have completed their mask fitting. Failure to do so will prevent students from starting their first clinical course. Students must contact ƽÌØÎå²»ÖÐ Student Health Service for a mask fitting appointment or attend announced group appointments. All supporting documentation regarding immunization must be submitted to ƽÌØÎå²»ÖÐ Student Health Service. ƽÌØÎå²»ÖÐ Student Health Service will provide students with cards that will attest the completion of the immunization requirements and will contain information regarding mask fit. Cards will be provided to students upon immunization and mask fitting completion. Students are required to submit the ƽÌØÎå²»ÖÐ Student Health Service card electronically by the third clinical seminar (submission details provided in clinical seminar 1).
