Block 7: Well-being Day Policy

As we start Block 7, here is a reminder about the well-being day policy:  

• Well-being Day. Students may select one day during the Block 7 APPE to use as a well-being day to focus on personal health and well-being.  The hours off for the well-being day do not need to be made up. Key Points:
  • To have a well-being day off, students must confirm the date of the well-being day by the end of the rotation day of the first Friday of block 7 with their preceptor.
  • Students may not change the date of the well-being day once the date is established.
  • Students will not need to make up the hours for well-being day.
  • Students should include the 8 hours for their well-being day on the block 7 APPE hour log. The 8 hours will be reduced from the total hours for the academic year by the experiential office.

The full attendance policy policy can be found in the APPE Specific Manual under APPE Attendance Policy.
