Students must have all required tasks complete in Castle Branch and mCE by established deadlines in student letter. Only 1.2, 2.1, and 2.2 students will use mCE. Accounts will be created after the completion of the 1.1. semester by the clinical coordinator. Under no circumstances should students create their own mCE accounts as it interferes with properly loading clinical rotations.
Review the following documents for guidance on how to navigate mCE. If you have questions,

Penrose/St Francis Hospitals uses mCE as their platform for compliance documents, communication and immunization records. Ensure you complete mCE compliance tab, document tab, module tab and post exam tab.
Most Common Mistakes
Under Compliance Tab: Ensure you complete all 9 COVID tasks. Students must upload their COVID Card not the PPSC Health and Immunization Form.
Under Documents Tab: Ensure all documents have a consented-on date.
Under Exam Tab: Complete post exam to gain hospital approval for rotation.
Keep in mind that documents must be uploaded to your campus checklist versus hospital checklists.
UCHealth uses mCE as their platform for compliance documents, communication and immunization records. Ensure you complete mCE compliance tab, document tab and modules tab.
Most Common Mistakes
Under Documents Tab: Ensure all documents have a consented-on date and that you’ve uploaded your HIPAA acknowledgement statement and student handbook document.
Ensure all documents that require an upload actually have the uploaded document.
CHCO uses mCE as their platform for compliance documents, communication and immunization records. Ensure you complete mCE compliance tab and document tab.
Most Common Mistakes
Under Documents Tab: Ensure you’ve uploaded your Onboarding information document. Students must fill out the onboarding form in its entirety. All fields are mandatory.
All information is sent directly from CHCO to students. Ensure you are checking your email to include your junk folder for communications.
NEW PROCESS: CHCO has initiated the use of MyChart accounts. Students need to setup a MyChart account upon receiving instructions. This communication will be sent from CHCO Occupational Health Services and the HIPAA form must be signed. Please note, this could be sent prior to receiving orientation instructions.
Students will receive communication from UCH when their EPIC Modules are loaded. UCH
IT provides the login credentials and the UCH EPIC team loads modules. There may be
a delay between receiving your credentials to when your modules are visible.
