Welcome to our student and faculty orientation website. StudentMAX Connection, the regional clinical placement consortium for the Portland/Southwest Washington metropolitan area, with sponsorship of the Oregon Center for Nursing, brings you this program to facilitate your orientation to the clinical facilities. Our goal in offering this core orientation on-line is to reduce the repetition of similar content by each facility. You will only be required to complete the “core” once a year. Facility specific orientation will be completed prior to your clinical rotation and may include additional required orientation topics.
Online Clinical Orientation
Regulatory agencies require that employees and ANY individual providing patient care in healthcare facilities review specific content related to safety and professional healthcare practice annually to maintain compliance with regulatory mandates and insure overall quality patient care. The clinical facilities and schools of the StudentMax Connection use an online orientation program developed by the Total Clinical Placement System (Learn more about TCPS℠). This content provides the required general orientation content that is foundational to all healthcare practice.
