STUDENT REPRESENTATION ON DEPARTMENT COMMITTEES Student involvement in department meetings is beneficial to the program as a whole. To promote this involvement, class elected student representatives attend department meetings and course meetings at regularly scheduled intervals. Students are asked to participate in selected faculty and curriculum meetings, (see Appendix A for the Department of Nursing Organizational Chart and Appendix B for Department Committees). ELECTION OF CLASS OFFICERS AND COURSE REPRESENTATIVES Nursing students elect representation for each Co-hort. These students are to provide formal leadership and communication with the Department of Nursing program faculty. During the Level 1 course of NUR320, a formal election process occurs for choosing of the class representation. (see Appendix C). ANNOUNCEMENTS AND COMMUNICATION Student Mailboxes Each nursing student is assigned a mailbox in the Nursing Commons, 405 Marston. Notices, memos, messages, etc., are placed in the students’ mailboxes on a regular basis. It would be beneficial to check these mailboxes frequently. Faculty Mailboxes Faculty mailboxes are located in the Department of Nursing office. Students wishing to leave messages for faculty should place them in the Department of Nursing Inbox located on the upper ledge of the Department Administrative Assistant’s desk in Marston 406. Email Each student receives a WJC email account that is accessible from any workstation on campus and via remote access from off-campus sites. Students are expected to check their WJC email accounts daily each week day when school is in session and to comply with proper campus usage policies. The student’s WJC email account is available for one year following graduation. Requested response to an email is expected within72 business hours of email’s original sent date or sooner if requested by the sender. Student Program Essentials The Moodle site: NUR_Student Essentials (NUR_SE) is accessible by all nursing students. This site is a significant location for nursing students where pertinent information and documents such as the Department of Nursing Student Handbook, calendars, clinical and compliance forms, and service information are available. Emergency Notification The Jewell Alert System provides instant cell phone communication to all members of the college community who choose to be a part of the network. The system is reserved exclusively for two specific scenarios: school closings for day classes due to inclement weather and emergency situations that are in progress on the campus. Register for this service at the following link: http://www.qtags.com/wjc/ . Cancellation of WJC Classes All class cancellations for the day can be viewed at the following link: http://www.jewell.edu/william_jewell/gen/william_and_jewell_generated_pages/Academics_Contacts_ and_Class_Cancellations_p5108.html 7
Student Contact Information Each student is expected to provide addresses, land and cell phone, and emergency contact numbers to the Department’s Clinical Compliance Coordinator each academic year. This information is used by faculty for contact purposes and is not shared without permission. NURSING ARTS LABORATORY (NAL) The Nursing Arts Laboratory (NAL) is open to students 24 hours and seven days a week. Students are welcome to use the Nursing Arts Laboratory between 0800 AM and 1630 PM Monday through Friday unless a class or testing is in session. Scheduled group laboratory sessions are posted outside the NAL entrance. Campus Safety is available upon request to allow entrance to utilize the NAL facilities after the hours listed above. Students must sign the "After Hours Lab Access" log-in sheet after presenting proper identification to campus safety personnel. Before or after regular hours, please contact Campus Safety at ext.1411 from a campus phone or 816/365-0709 from an off-campus phone/cell phone to have the door unlocked. Please be prepared to provide Campus Safety with your WJC campus identification. Due to the equipment and supplies in the NAL, non-nursing students are not permitted in the Nursing Arts Laboratory (NAL) unless prior permission has been obtained from the NAL Coordinator. NURSING COMMONS A student may be accompanied by one non-nursing student in the Nursing Commons area when the Department of Nursing office is closed; however, the individual must be able to provide identification to Campus Safety upon request. Exceptions to the above policies must be approved by the Department of Nursing and communicated to Campus Safety. If you arrive and the door is locked during regular office hours (8am-4:30pm), please see the Administrative Assistant or Office Manager for assistance. NURSING COMMONS/COMPUTER USE A limited number of computers for nursing student use are located in the Nursing Commons (405 Marston) and in 404 Marston. These computers are provided for the convenience of the nursing students. Additional computers are available in the Curry Library 24/7 with William Jewell ID swipe card. Wireless access is available throughout the 4 th floor of Marston. Students may print a preset number of pages per academic year. If the student exceeds the limit, additional pages may be purchased at the campus Business Office. PHONE USAGE Cell phones are to be turned off during class and out of sight during exams or during review of past exams. Cell phones may not be used in the clinical setting; this includes sending text messages. There may be additional agency requirements in regards to cell phone usage. All students must follow agency requirements in regards to cell phone usage. In some cases, these may be more strict than the Department of Nursing policy. STUDENT IDENTIFICATION Students are required to bring student IDs when entering the Nursing Arts Laboratory after normal business hours. Students are also required to wear a William Jewell College name badge and picture ID during any clinical or laboratory experience off campus. Failure to wear name badge and picture ID in clinical settings may necessitate leaving clinical until the name badge can be retrieved. 8
