Electroneurodiagnostic (END) - FAQs
Will I be guaranteed a job with Kaiser when I graduate?
Job placement with Kaiser is not guaranteed.
How do I pay for tuition and books?
Tuition and fees are paid directly to KPSAHS.
Where will I be assigned for clinical rotations?
Clinical assignments for all programs are made by the Program Director with input from the program staff. Clinical assignments are made to ensure all students receive an equitable high quality clinical education during their enrollment. Clinical rotations are limited by the number of students living within a specific geographic region and by the number of clinical sites available in that area. In addition, students may be required to rotate between clinical sites during the course of their clinical education to ensure all students receive exposure to the full spectrum of Neurodiagnostic equipment and/or procedures. Due to the nature of traffic in Northern California, students may be required to travel several hours to clinical sites. All students must be prepared and willing to commit themselves to any travel time required to achieve the educational goals of the program. Rotation requirements will be presented to the student by their Program Director. Due to the potential for conflict of interests (i.e., imposed work demands supersede learning obligations), students are discouraged from performing clinical education at their work places. Some Directors have officially ruled against allowing their Program-enrolled employees to perform clinical at their workplaces.
Are all clinical sites Kaiser Permanente facilities?
A majority of the clinical sites used for clinical rotations by the Electroneurodiagnostic Technology program are Kaiser Facilities. We do have affiliation agreements with several non-Kaiser facilities located throughout Northern California.
Are all Kaiser Permanente Medical Facilities clinical sites?
No, not all Kaiser Permanente Medical Facilities are clinical sites.
Is a particular uniform required for clinical education?
Students represent the School when they are participating in clinical rotations and are required to dress conservatively in business attire with a lab coat during participation in clinical rotations. In addition, some facilities have site specific requirements that students must follow.
When and where is the orientation?
Prior to the start of class there is a mandatory orientation at the KPSAHS Richmond Campus. Orientation is typically held during the last week of March.
