****Please note that if you wish to have more than one experience at Aultman, a new internship application will have to be completed (with the appropriate documentation) per experience. 

For this application you will need to provide:

• Background Check: A BCI Background check is required for your experience. (If you have lived outside Ohio in the past 5 years you will be required to perform an FBI Background Check instead.) Your background check cannot be more than 12 months old. If it is due to expire during the timeframe of your experience you will be asked to complete a new background check. The cost of the background check is the responsibility of the student. The student's school might perform the background check for them for a fee. If not, please use this link to locate a location to complete the background check.
• TB Documentation: TB testing is required for all student experiences and is done at the expense of the student; this requirement is not able to be waived. TB testing can be completed at a primary care physician’s office, the health department, occupational medicine provider (i.e. Aultworks) or a college/university health services department. For more information, please visit this link.
• Immunization Documentation: The below immunizations are required for all hands-on student experiences at Aultman. If your immunization record is not current, then an Immunization Waiver is to be completed.
• Flu Documentation: Flu season restriction is from November 1 – March 31st annually unless extended by the hospital executive team. During that timeframe all participating in student experiences are to either have a flu shot or must submit a Flu Waiver. If you waive the flu shot a mask must be worn in patient care areas during your experience.
• COVID 19 Vaccination Documentation: Aultman Health Foundation is required to report monthly COVID-19 vaccine data to CMS. Due to this requirement, we must know the vaccination status of all students and instructors until further notice. You can submit your vaccine information or decline it by filling out the form located here.

If your program coordinator has these items on file at your school, they can complete an External Student Verification Form; this indicates that you have the requirements on file at the school (i.e., current background check, immunizations, etc.); if this form is completed, you do not need to attach said requirements to your application.

If you are unable to attach documentation to the application, please email it to studentexperiences@aultman.com.

No student/student group will be allowed to complete a student experience at Aultman without an affiliation agreement in place that has been executed by the Aultman Health Foundation and the student’s school/program. This is verified and/or completed by the Aultman Student Experience Coordinator and must be in place before your experience starts.

Please complete all paperwork at least 4 weeks prior to your requested start date for processing; applications and documentation not received in a timely manner could result in the delay of a student experience. You will receive communication from the Aultman Student Experience Coordinator through the email address listed on your application, so please check your email regularly.

Once all documentation has been received and processed, you will receive an email containing your official approval letter.

If you have questions about the application process, please email studentexperiences@aultman.com.
