emergency situations. If the situation is judged to be an emergency, a message will then be delivered to the student in class/clinical as soon as possible.
ALL visitors on campus looking for a student should be directed to the office of the Vice President of Academic and Student Services. When an individual comes to the Vice President’s office to locate a student, the administrative assistant to the Vice President will find out why the individual wants to see the student. If the situation is judged to be an emergency, the student will be located and advised that a visitor (visitor's name will be given to student) is waiting in the Vice President’s office for him/her. If the situation is a non-emergency, the visitor will be advised that classes cannot be interrupted and he/she is welcome to wait until classes are over and the student can be contacted. Visitors are not to come to the Nursing Department.

Information about a student’s schedule will never be given to a visitor or caller.
Children in Class
Children are not permitted in nursing classes, labs, or social functions. They may accompany their parents for business transactions.
Students who bring children to class will not be allowed to remain in the class, lab, clinical area, fundraisers, or social functions. Some of these environments can be hazardous for children, and children may also be disruptive to the learning process.
For reasons of security and child welfare, the College will not permit unattended children to be left anywhere on the college campus. Individuals who bring children to campus and refuse to abide by these guidelines will be referred to security and are subject to the DCC Student Code of Conduct.
CANVAS
Canvas is extensively used to communicate with students. All students are held responsible for checking these announcements. Canvas should be checked daily. Announcements can be posted at any time.
CPR Certification
Prior to entering the any Nursing program at DCC, each student must have a current American Heart BLS Healthcare Provider Course certification. This certification is the responsibility of the student. Danville Community College’s Continuing Education Department and area rescue squads offer classes. This certification must extend until the completion of the Nursing Program. American Heart BLS for Healthcare Providers which is good for two years is required. Other CPR courses are not accepted (example: American Red Cross). Each student is required to have a valid CPR card.
