WCHP Establishes the Waters College Advisory Board

February 11, 2022

The Waters College of Health Professions (WCHP) has established the Waters College Advisory Board (WCAB). Launched in 2022, the role of the WCAB will be to support and facilitate the success of WCHP. The WCAB will provide advice, council and ideas to members of the college on a variety of issues to include programs, placement and the competitive environment of education in the health professions. Additionally, board members will assist with fundraising and development efforts and increasing the visibility of the college. To learn more about the WCAB, or to learn more about becoming a board or committee member, visit chp.georgiasouthern.edu/waters-college-advisory-board.

Clinical Internship/Practicum Experience Update

Many of the clinical programs offered by the Waters College of Health Professions require a clinical internship or practicum experience to fulfill degree requirements.  Pursuant to the University's legal agreements, participants in clinical experiences are required to abide by the workplace rules of the clinical site. The University is aware of recent federal requirements that would mandate vaccination against COVID-19 for those working in certain settings, including health care. At this time, we expect that these new requirements may significantly impact our ability to locate a placement for students who remain unvaccinated. As always, WCHP will continue to make every effort to place students at clinical sites. However, please be aware that we may be unable to locate a site to accept unvaccinated students, which may cause a delay or inability to progress and complete the program of study.
