SELECT Immunization Instructions

As you plan your 4^th year electives – including any “away” electives not at USF-Lehigh Valley or Tampa, you may be asked by host institutions to provide them with additional testing or titers, based upon a review of history.

Below are the steps to help guide you through completing these additional rotation requirements, if necessary:

1. SELECT student requests their immunization/test records from Medical Health Administration (USF Tampa) either by email: mha@usf.edu or phone: 813-974-3163
2. Student compares the requirements of the receiving hospital to the records obtained from USF.
3. For physicals, additional titers, immunizations or other testing (including drug testing), these can be done by Concentra.
   1. Please call to make an appointment, and identify yourself as a USF student when scheduling.
   2. Walk-in hours are available for titers, immunizations, and drug screenings. Titers can be performed Monday through Friday until 1:30 pm each day.
   3. Students are responsible for all expenses including the cost of vaccine, immunization and/or drug testing fees needed. 
   4. You will be required to pay for charges up front and then submit to your insurance for reimbursement.
   5. You will be responsible for all charges not covered by your insurance.

4. TB Screening: If the only item needed for the rotation requirements is a TB screen, plus completion of the medical form verified by an HCP signature, Employee Health Services will provide this as a courtesy to you.  Go to Employee Health during WALK-IN hours and have the TB screen done.  TB screening will be done by PPD Mantoux testing.  QFT testing will be provided ONLY when a QFT test is a rotation requirement.  
   If you need your medical requirement form signed by a HCP, leave your forms AND your USF records with the Employee Health Receptionist at that time.  After the TB screen is read/reported, the Employee Health Nurse will complete the form and notify you to pick up the forms.  If only the verification of medical forms is needed, drop off the forms, with your USF records in Employee Health, and you will be called to pick up when completed. 
5. Fit Testing: Fit-testing will be offered to students in June during Prologue 4; otherwise, you will need to make an individual appointment with Infection Control and Prevention.  
6. Flu Shots: During flu season, Employee Health will provide flu shots to all SELECT students at the SELECT 3 Flu Clinic that is arranged by Student Affairs. Students will also be able to get one at the Employee Health office by registering online. Employee Health does NOT offer walk-in hours for flu shots.
