Physical Requirements See in very dim light. Distinguish colors and subtle differences in shades of gray. Discriminate subtle sounds. Push heavy-wheeled equipment. Push patients on stretchers and in wheelchairs. Assist in lifting, transferring, and positioning patients. Communicate in clear and concise English. Read, understand, and follow instructions accurately. Be able to concentrate for a minimum of 6 hours. Utilize a keyboard. Have adequate wrist and hand strength necessary to operate & manipulate equipment. Stand and walk for extended periods of time (several hours). Employ body mechanics to bend, stretch, reach, stoop, kneel, and twist. The student will have 2 upper extremities that can work simultaneously to hold the transducer and manipulate controls on the ultrasound unit as well as the ability to extend extremities to reach these areas simultaneously in order to perform optimal Sonographic images while learning and performing sonographic examination. The student will have the ability to see the monitor screen accurately at approximately a 3’ distance in a dimly lit room in order to perform optimal Sonographic images while learning and performing a Sonographic examination. The student will have the ability to effectively communicate with their instructor, the patient, departmental staff, the reading physician, and all others while learning and performing diagnostic imaging techniques. COVID Immunization Requirements While not all recommended vaccines are required for attendance, it's important for students to consider protecting themselves against various diseases, including COVID-19. There is a high probability that student clinical externships will have additional health clearance and immunization requirements beyond the current recommendations outlined by the CDC or ADOM policy. Immunization Requirements Students must either present documentation of having had Hepatitis B injections 1 and 2 and a TB test within 6 months or must complete the first two Hepatitis B injections and a TB test prior to enrollment. If the TB test result is positive, the applicant must be cleared to attend by a physician prior to enrollment. In addition, the Connecticut Department of Health requires the following immunizations for all students entering post-secondary educational institutions: proof of immunity against measles, mumps and rubella, and proof of the meningitis immunization or a signed meningitis declination must be submitted to the Admissions Office for evaluation within 30 days of the program start date. Immunization requirements are generally based on the current recommendations of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) for healthcare workers and the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). ADOM has identified a standard immunization policy but reserves the right to require additional healthcare clearance assessment, documentation, immunization, and serology testing at any point throughout the enrollment of the program. In addition, immunizations and health requirements may change without notice, and students may be required to provide verifiable documentation of their ability to meet new requirements. Students are not permitted to participate in any clinical experiences if their immunizations do not meet the standards outlined in this document or those required by specific clinical agencies. Hepatitis B Serologic proof of immunity is required. Three dose series (dose #1 now, #2 in 1 month, #3 approximately 5 months after #2). Obtain serologic testing 2 months after dose #3. MMR Serologic evidence of immunity or laboratory confirmation of disease is required. If no evidence of immunity or equivocal serology results are reported, two doses of MMR at least 28 days apart required. Varicella Serologic proof of immunity or laboratory confirmation of disease required. If no evidence of immunity or equivocal serology results are reported, two doses of Varicella vaccine at least 28 days apart required. Td/Tdap One-time dose of Tdap is required. Td boosters every 10 years thereafter. Influenza While not mandatory for enrollment, clinical sites where students may undertake externships may require vaccinations, including the influenza vaccine, as a condition of participation. Tuberculin Skin Test (TST) For students with no history of previous annual tuberculin skin testing, an initial two-step is required. Students with previous annual and current testing who provide evidence by documentation, only a one-step is required. Testing must be within the past 90 days. For students with TB test result is positive, the applicant must be cleared to attend by a physician prior to enrollment. Serological Evidence of Immunity If applicants or students at ADOM are unable to provide adequate immunization records, they have the option to demonstrate serological evidence of immunity for hepatitis B, measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR), varicella (chickenpox), and tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis (Td/Tdap). While seasonal influenza vaccination is not mandatory, it is required by some clinical sites for externships. Mandatory tuberculosis screening, either through initial two-step testing or annual one-step testing, applies to all students during enrollment. Failure to comply with vaccination and testing requirements may lead to an inability to participate in the required externship and subsequently result in program dismissal. Health Clearance Forms Students must submit the approved physical and health clearance forms to ADOM upon enrollment. It is essential that students be able to perform several physical and cognitive activities in the classroom, clinical, and learning laboratory portions of the program. Medical issues that may affect a student's ability to enter or practice within a clinical area include, but are not limited to, limitations required after surgery or an accident, immunosuppression, back injury, and behavioral health conditions, specifically those that create a violent or unsafe environment. Students are not to enter any clinical facility with contagious conditions or injuries. A student must consult with the clinical instructor if an illness, medical condition, or injury is present prior to entering the clinical facility. ADOM or the student’s clinical site reserves the right to request a medical release from a healthcare provider if an identified condition, illness, and/or injury may cause a potential safety risk to the student, patient, or others.

ADOM recommends that all concerns be directly to ADOM Program Directors or high administration as SOON as their is even a hint of a concern. ADOM is completely open to any and all constructive suggestions for improvement or amendments. We appreciate and look forward to feedback from all of our staff, students and communities we serve. We are here for you. Also, ADOM has a Grievance Policy that has both informal and formal processes, depending on the circumstances. Purpose The purpose of this policy is to establish a fair and transparent process for students, parents, or guardians to submit complaints regarding any aspect of ADOM's operations, including academic matters, administrative issues, or the behavior of staff members or students. Scope This policy applies to all students, parents, or guardians who have concerns or complaints related to ADOM. It covers a wide range of issues, such as curriculum, grading, discipline, harassment, safety, facilities, or any other matter affecting the educational experience. Informal Resolution for Student Complaints ADOM encourages individuals with complaints to first attempt an informal resolution. They are encouraged to discuss their concerns with the appropriate staff member, such as the teacher, director, or administrator, who can work towards resolving the issue promptly and amicably. Formal Grievance Procedure for Student Complaints If an informal resolution is not satisfactory or appropriate, the complainant may proceed with a formal complaint using the following procedure: ▪ Written Complaint The complainant must submit a written complaint detailing the nature of the complaint, including relevant facts, dates, and individuals involved. The complaint should be addressed to the appropriate school administrator or designated complaint officer. ▪ Investigation Upon receiving the written complaint, ADOM will initiate an investigation. The investigation may involve gathering evidence, interviewing relevant parties, and reviewing relevant documents or records. ADOM will ensure confidentiality and impartiality during the investigation process. ▪ Resolution Based on the findings of the investigation, ADOM will take appropriate action to resolve the complaint. This may include corrective measures, policy adjustments, or disciplinary actions as deemed necessary. ▪ Communication ADOM will communicate the outcome of the investigation and resolution to the complainant in writing, explaining the decision and any steps taken or recommended. ADOM will also outline any further options available to the complainant, if applicable. Appeal Process If the complainant is not satisfied with the outcome or resolution of the complaint, they may request an appeal. The appeal should be submitted in writing to the designated appeal officer within a specified timeframe. The appeal officer will conduct a review of the complaint, investigation process, and the decision made, and will provide a final decision within a reasonable timeframe. Retaliation Prohibition ADOM strictly prohibits any form of retaliation against individuals who file complaints in good faith. Any retaliation will be treated as a separate violation subject to disciplinary action. Documentation ADOM will maintain appropriate records of all complaints, investigations, resolutions, and appeals for a designated period. Such records will be handled confidentially and in compliance with applicable privacy laws and regulations. Reporting to Regulatory Authorities If the complaint involves a violation of legal requirements or regulations, ADOM will follow applicable reporting procedures as mandated by law or regulatory authorities. This school complaint policy aims to provide a fair and transparent process for addressing concerns and complaints while ensuring a conducive learning environment for all stakeholders.

Refunds are based on a calculation that is set forth by the state and federal regulations we are governed by. The date of last physical attendance is the date that the refund calculation begins. Program Termination of Cancellation In the event classes are permanently cancelled by the school, the student will be entitled to a refund of any tuition monies already paid for cancelled classes. Non-Refundable Fees: The registration fee and the lab fees may be non-refundable and will be deducted from the refund amount. Timelines ADOM will make reasonable efforts to process the refund within a specified timeframe, typically within 30 days of the termination date. Method of Refund Refunds will generally be issued in the same method as the original payment. If the original payment was made by credit card, the refund will be credited back to the same credit card account. If the payment was made by check, the refund will be issued in the form of a check. Return of Title IV Funds (R2T4) Policy ADOM is required to determine the earned and unearned portions of Title IV aid (Federal Financial Aid) as of the date a student ceases to attend all of his/her classes. Earned and unearned aid is based on the amount of time a student spends in attendance. Up through the 60% point in each semester, a pro-rata schedule is used to determine the amount of Federal Financial Aid a student has earned at the time of withdrawal. After the 60% point in the semester, a student has earned 100% of their Federal Financial Aid. NOTE: The Return of Title IV Funds (R2T4) regulations do not dictate an institutional refund policy. Withdrawing from or ceasing to attend classes can result in owing a balance to ADOM if a student does not earn enough financial aid to cover their bill. Post-Withdrawal Disbursements Occasionally a student who withdraws from ADOM is entitled to a post-withdrawal disbursement. A post-withdrawal disbursement occurs when the R2T4 calculation determines that a student is entitled to financial aid even though the student has completely withdrawn or stopped attending. If a student withdraws and is entitled to a post-withdrawal disbursement, a disbursement notice is mailed to the student informing him/her of the disbursement. It is the student’s right/responsibility to notify ADOM if you do not wish to receive the funds. Processing Timeframe for Refunds Refunds for students who have been dismissed from the program will be processed within 30 business days from the date of dismissal. The specific refund amount will depend on the timing of the dismissal, as outlined in the refund policy. It's important to note that refunds are subject to certain conditions and percentages based on the weeks of attendance. ADOM strives to ensure a timely processing of refunds to eligible students in accordance with the established policies and guidelines.
