Bring all of your personal immunization records with you – get copies from your family doctor, the Health Unit your high school was serviced by, or other clinics where you may have received vaccines.

Start Early to get Medical Forms for Program Entry!
If you need to submit medical forms for your program, you need to plan ahead and start early. Forms must be submitted prior to field placements. The process usually takes a minimum of 2 weeks to complete, but may take up to 4 weeks depending on your immunization history. The nurse can help you with the completion of the forms and all required blood work, immunizations and TB testing.
PLEASE NOTE: Some programs have specific deadlines for form completion. If you have any questions regarding requirements or deadlines, please contact your program coordinator.
