Immunization

To assure that students are not exposed to undue health risks and do not pose a risk to their patients, students must provide evidence of appropriate vaccination by July 31 of the year in which they commence undergraduate medical education, according to the information provided by 黑料不打烊 Student Health Service.

• All students must be immunized against Hepatitis B and all students must have Hepatitis B titres (HbsAb) measured. Non-converters will be tested for Hepatitis B surface antigen (HbsAg). Non-converters will be offered counseling by 黑料不打烊 Student Health Service. Students who test positive for the surface antigen will be referred to the Undergraduate Associate Dean. If repeat serology does not confirm immunity, and the person is not a carrier, they will be given the option of another series of vaccines or a series of intradermal vaccines to attempt sero-conversion.
• Annual vaccination for influenza is required for all students. The student should retain proof of vaccination.
• Vaccination against other infectious diseases may be required, if need arises.

You have access to 黑料不打烊 Student Health Service as soon as you are accepted into the program. You must call 514-398-6017 to make an appointment.

If you choose to complete your immunizations through your family physician or your CLSC, make sure to follow the 黑料不打烊 immunization requirements since 黑料不打烊 Student Health Service will not accept different immunization protocols.

The completed form(s) must be returned to 黑料不打烊 Student Health Service. Upload immunization documentation via Minerva as soon as possible, and by July 31 of the year in which you are commencing the undergraduate medical education program at the latest.

For the purposes of verification of compliance with the immunization requirements, you grant permission to the Office of 黑料不打烊 to securely share your immunization form with the 黑料不打烊 Student Health Service.

All immunization requirements must be met by Orientation Day. Students who do not meet these requirements may be asked to withdraw.

For details, see www.mcgill.ca/ugme/academic-policies/infection-control-immunization.

Mask Fit Test

All students are required to have a Mask Fit Test in order to choose the appropriate mask for their use. The University is able to offer this test free of charge. Students will have a mandatory Mask Fit session prior to third-year clerkship.

Students who are pursuing clinical rotations in Canada or the United States may be required to be refitted prior to their arrival at the actual clinical rotation's facility. For details, see www.mcgill.ca/studenthealth/immunize/forms.

Policy on Students Known to be Infected with Blood-borne Viruses (e.g., Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and HIV)

Individuals who carry blood-borne pathogens might not be permitted to perform certain procedures that may pose a risk to patients and co-workers.

Students who are seropositive for Hepatitis B and/or C or HIV and/or any other blood-borne agent have a professional obligation to notify the UGME office upon entry into the program. Specific measures will be undertaken by the UGME office. Rotations may be modified for these students due to these circumstances.

The student will be referred to the Service d'茅valuation des risques de transmission d'infections h茅matog猫nes (SERTIH). Modifications to clinical rotations may be made. The student will be assisted in acquiring appropriate health care. Specific career counselling will be given. Students will be advised not to select residency programs where patient safety would be put at risk. This may limit the residency programs to which the student may apply.

Should core clinical rotations need to be modified, notation of this will be made in the Medical Student Performance Record (MSPR/Dean's letter). The student is professionally responsible to self-disclose their seropositive status to the residency program to which the student matches. For details, see www.mcgill.ca/studenthealth/immunize/forms.

All students studying medicine in a Quebec university are required by law to register with the Coll猫ge des m茅decins du Qu茅bec (CMQ) by September 30 of their first year of study. Electronic registration is required. All students enrolled in the M.D.,C.M. program will receive and email from the CMQ office to confirm their registration. A student who fails to comply with this requirement or who has their registration withdrawn will not be permitted to continue in the program. For details please refer to .

While there is no required proof of language proficiency, the official language of instruction of 黑料不打烊's undergraduate medical education program is English.

Students are expected to have a working knowledge of the English language (comprehension, spoken, and written) from the outset of the M.D.,C.M. program. Due to early clinical exposure in bilingual settings, the student is also expected to have a working knowledge of the French language (comprehension, spoken, and basic written) from the outset of the M.D.,C.M. program. Students are in contact with francophone patients in the teaching hospitals and may be assigned to francophone training sites for their clinical rotations.

The Faculty of Medicine offers medical French workshops on Saturday mornings throughout the duration of the program. Extracurricular English and French language courses are available at the University and are strongly suggested if English or French language skills require improvement.

For more information see www.mcgill.ca/ugme/curriculum/starting-our-program-what-you-need-know/language-requirements.

Because a large portion of the curriculum is available electronically, admitted students must have a personal computer with word processing/office suite software, standard web browsers, and Internet connection. The Medicine E-curriculum can be accessed via .

Portable workstations such as laptops with wireless network connectivity (Wi-Fi/802.11b or greater; see 黑料不打烊 Wireless Networks at www.mcgill.ca/it) are recommended. On campus, students may have access to restricted computer laboratories, printers, and limited workstations (including Macs) for temporary assistance.

Be advised that electronic media, multimedia, and other information technologies are used by the Faculty for teaching purposes and to promote learning, including being audio- and/or video-recorded as part of the program; for example, at the Steinberg Centre for Simulation and Interactive Learning. By submitting your application, you are indicating your agreement with these terms.

As a student in a professional faculty, individuals are expected to adhere to certain standards of behaviour. Common courtesy and respect are minimal requirements for all members of the academic community (faculty, students, and staff). Although students are in an early stage of their careers, their activities and interests are in two spheres: that of a student/learner and that of a professional (physician/dentist). Even though not yet a doctor or dentist, students are expected to abide by the standards of the profession. The general public expects medical and dental students to act like professionals. There are various codes and statements of rules and regulations which identify these expectations; some will speak primarily to the professional role, whereas others are much more relevant to the experience as a student. Many have components that overlap. For example, honesty and integrity are expected of the student and the professional. Student/faculty harassment, abuse, and mistreatment are not tolerated. For more details, see:

• Standards of Behaviour in the Learning Environment;
• Code of Conduct;
• Student Mistreatment;
• Guidelines for Medical Students in Social and Other Media; and
• WELL Office.

Students who demonstrate inappropriate professional conduct or are found guilty of a criminal offence may be dismissed from the program. All students should consult www.mcgill.ca/secretariat/policies/students for further information.

Students are responsible for the purchase of their own medical equipment. The following are required during the first year:

• stethoscope
• pen light
• reflex hammer
• ophthalmoscope/otoscope
• tuning forks (128Hz)

The following laboratory supplies are also required:

• a white long lab coat
• anatomy dissecting kit/2 persons (not biology kit)
• one box of gloves
