HPD Student Handbook | 2019 - 2020

College of Medical Sciences 2019–2020 91 • Students may only take into the lab the PPE and lab instruments. The instruments must be thoroughly cleaned before leaving the anatomy lab. • Students may not take their textbook or anatomy atlas into the lab. These books will be provided and permanently retained within the lab. • Disposable PPE items which must be used are isolation gowns and Nitrile gloves. Disposable shoe covers are optional. • Non-disposable PPE equipment which must be used are scrubs, closed-toed shoes, and safety glasses/goggles. • Any individual not following the PPE required guidelines will not be permitted to enter the lab and/or remain in the lab if they violate the protocol. The required PPE may be purchased through the NSU Bookstore or elsewhere as long as the products are comparable. Students will be required to purchase and use all the required PPE and follow the protocol when entering and exiting the lab. Prior to the start of a course utilizing the Anatomy Lab, all students are required to complete a set of modules titled Blood-borne Pathogens, Hazard Communication, Material Safety Data Sheets [MSDS], and Personal Protective Equipment. The modules will be made available to students electronically via Canvas at least two weeks prior to the first course meeting. Students must also sign the Pledge of Respect. Upon completion of the modules and prior to the first class meeting, students must print certificates of completion and present them to the course director. Failure to complete the modules and provide proof that the modules were completed prior to the first class meeting in the Anatomy Lab will result in the student not being allowed in the lab area and the missed lab session(s) being considered an unexcused absence(s). In addition to the above and prior to the first anatomy lab experience, students will participate in a review of safety issues and NSU protocol led by a representative of the NSU Environmental Health Services unit; information regarding the Pledge of Respect and the handling of cadavers by the NSU representative to the Anatomical Review Board; and a general review of the academic course requirements led by the course director. 5.
