Nursing and Health Careers Job Shadowing

To be completed upon acceptance into a Job Shadowing program:


  • Risk Release Form PDF document
  • Confidentiality Agreement PDF document
  • Short Term Health Statement PDF document
    (If you will be job shadowing at SUNY Upstate 3 days or less)
  • HIPAA Privacy Rule Education PDF document and Completion Certificate PDF document
  • ID Badge: Per policy J-01, an ID badge is only required if shadowing for more than two days; those shadowing for two days or less may obtain a visitor badge from security. As of July 1, 2010, all Self-Serve non-employee badge requests will be handled by Employee Health Service ensuring those requiring health clearance are properly cleared.  Once a request for a non-employee badge is submitted via Self Serve the manager hosting the intern will be instructed via e-mail to have the new intern report to either Employee Health Service for clearance or to Payroll for badging.  This new enhancement will help ensure Upstate's compliance with Department of Health regulations.  For information, call Sandra Delaney in Payroll Services at 4-4840.
