Change of Rounds Procedure

Rounds duty can be switched between students. However, the switch should be an AM for an AM or a PM for a PM but does not have to be for the same day of the week (for example, Monday for Monday).

The Rounds change form must be filled out completely prior to rounds duty including both students’ signatures. The Rounds Change form may be obtained from the program instructors or laboratory assistants.

In an emergency situation (illness, wreck) when you have called/asked someone to cover for you at the last minute, a change form must be signed and turned in within 24 hours of your return to school along with documentation of the emergency (doctor’s note, accident report). Failure to do this will result in the excused missing of rounds being changed to a “no show” and points deducted accordingly.
