Please verify whether the telephone number indicated in your profile on HSPnet is your current one and the one where you can be reached most easily.

1. Read thoroughly the Student Guide to Onboarding at MUHC, which can be found in HSPnet.
2. Start your Criminal Background Verification no later than 10 business days prior to the start of your placement, as instructed in the student guide. This process may take long and failure to complete this step in advance may delay the start of your clinical placement. Wait for an e-mail within 24 hours from IntelliCentrics, indicating that your registration has been recognized and submitted to the MUHC for review. If you do not receive this email, or if you have made an error in your registration, DO NOT create a second profile! Call IntelliCentrics support at: 1-877-885-1420 only available M-F 9am-5pm. Note: IntelliCentrics is a separate company from the MUHC. They CANNOT assist you with any inquiries regarding the ENA or OACIS (login or passwords)
   Those who have undergone a criminal background verification (CBV) at the MUHC before August may be prompted by email by SEC3URE to update their IntelliCentrics profile. If you receive this notification from the SEC3URE address, it is a legitimate notification and requires action on your part. Those who successfully completed their MUHC CBV in or after Fall semester, please note no action on your part is required as your clearance is valid until July 31, unless you have new information to declare.
   If you have multiple placements at the MUHC during the Summer semester, you will have to complete a new CBV for the placement starting on or after August 1, as your clearance resets on July 31.
   If you are an employee at the MUHC, you will still need to complete a CBV as a student. Please note that you may have to adjust your profile to gain student access.
   The slides below will help you in completing your CBV.
   Completing your CBV
3. The Clinical Partnerships Office will communicate your IUN (unique identifier number) and OACIS access information to you via email prior to the start of your clinical placement. If you do not have your MUHC photo ID card, once your criminal background verification is completed, please ensure to go to the Glen site security desk PRIOR to the start date of your clinical placement to obtain one.
4. Lockers

   

   CPO will communicate your locker assignment once we receive this information from the MUHC administration.

   You may NOT access your locker before the start date of your clinical placement. Due to a shortage of lockers you may need to share a locker with a colleague, therefore, you must empty your locker at the end of your shift.

   If you already have access to a locker as an employee, please notify CPO; we will inform MUHC to re-assign your newly assigned locker to another student.

   Should you have any issues with your locker, please contact:
   Service de cartes d'identité et gestion d'accès / ID Cards Services and Access Coordination
   Sécurité CUSM / MUHC Security
   idcards [at] muhc.mcgill.ca

Ensure to send the Criminal Background Check (form must be filled for every single time a student starts a rotation), Student Declaration Form and Hand Hygiene Certificate to the appropriate offices PRIOR to the start of your clinical placement, as indicated in the guidelines. If you have completed the hand hygiene module within the present academic year (September – August), you do not need to repeat the module, however, you must resubmit the original certificate to the email address indicated in the guidelines. Submission of documents may vary whether you are in a precepted or a group course.

1. Send CPO (admincpo.nursing [at] mcgill.ca) your McGill email address to create your HSPnet profile. CPO can exceptionally and temporarily use your personal email to that end only when there isn’t enough time between your hiring and the start of your clinical. Ensure to send CPO your McGill email address as soon as you receive it so that we can update your profile.
   CPO will create your profile in HSPnet; this will allow you to view your clinical placement and the onboarding documentation required from you. Your login information will be sent to you (normally first initial + last name, e.g. John Doe = jdoe), once created, as well as a temporary password. Upon your initial login you will be prompted to view a short tutorial to access the site. If you are a returning Clinical Instructor, CPO will re-activate your login.
2. Read carefully and thoroughly the onboarding documentation available in HSPnet. You may be responsible for collecting student documentation and submitting it to the appropriate office. You must complete all onboarding requirements no later than 10 buisness days prior to the start date of the clinical placement. Here are the steps to access the onboarding documentation:

4. Promptly complete the survey that will be sent to you

• You must send your full name, date of birth and email address to CPO (admincpo.nursing [at] mcgill.ca); MUHC needs this information to create or reactivate your IUN (unique identifier number).
• Once received, CPO will forward the IUN information to you. Your IUN is needed to complete your Criminal Background Verification, which must be initiated no later than 10 business days prior to the start date of your clinical placement. You must complete a CBV as a clinical instructor even if you are an employee at the MUHC. Your CBV is valid between August 1 and July 31. If you have more than one placement within that timeframe you do not need to complete a new CBV unless there is a change in the information previously submitted.
• Please advise CPO if you need a locker at your MUHC placement location no later than 10 working days prior to the start date of your clinical placement. A locker will not be assigned to you otherwise.
