HEALTH AND PHYSICAL CONSIDERATION

Generally, the professional in the nursing or pharmacy field must be in good physical health since he/she will be working in direct contact with patients. These fields require a great deal of standing, walking, pushing, bending, and stretching for extended periods of time. A person must consider his/her physical limitations in terms of making a career choice that involved extensive physical demands. We promote the acceptance of students with physical limitations or disabilities if these students (their parents or physician) believe they can fulfill training demands. Expectant mothers should consult with their physicians before enrolling.
