Clinical placements are arranged by our Clinical Placement Coordinator. Students are not permitted to arrange their own placements. Placements typically occur within the city of Kingston and/or communities within a 90 minute drive of Queen's campus. Our placement catchment area covers an area along the north shore of Lake Ontario from Peterborough to Smiths Falls to Brockville to just west of Cornwall. As students are responsible for transportation to and from clinical placements, a vehicle may be necessary.
Some of our clinical placement partners include:
- Kingston Health Sciences Centre
- Tsi Kanonhkhwatsheríyo Indigenous Interprofessional Primary Care Team
- Quinte Health
- Corrections Canada
- Providence Manor
- And variety of rural family health teams and clinics
The final clinical course Integrated Practicum requires 416 hours of clinical and 39 hours of tutorial over the 13 week term.
