Memorandum of Understanding
This Memorandum of Understanding must be signed, dated, and submitted at the time
of application to the program. Please initial each item.
______ I have read and understand the information in the online Respiratory Therapy
pre-admission conference presentation. Questions can be directed to the Respiratory
Therapy coordinator at 606.878.4745 or angie.mills@kctcs.edu
______ I understand that clinical facilities require a criminal background check and a
drug screen before being allowed to participate in clinical experiences. I also
understand that the Respiratory Therapy program requires me to have a criminal
background check and a drug screen once a year before participation in clinical
experiences. If I do not “pass” the test, the facility may refuse to allow me to practice in
their facility and may be dismissed from the program. The cost of these checks/screens
will be my responsibility.
______ I understand the Respiratory Therapy program classes and clinical schedules are
non-negotiable and will vary each semester.
______ I understand that if admitted to the program, I must submit proof of certain
immunizations, documentation of yearly TB skin tests, and maintain CPR certification.
Students must begin the series of Hepatitis B vaccinations or sign a Hepatitis B
declination form before beginning clinical. I must also purchase liability insurance, as
provided through KCTCS, at the beginning of each semester. I may also be required to
complete an orientation to each clinical facility.
______ I understand that there are mandatory purchases for the program including, but
not limited to, textbooks, uniforms, shoes, etc.
______ I understand that it is my responsibility to submit all required application
materials by the appropriate deadline date.
