ACCESS INFORMATION

Access to clinical units is meant to be on clinical days and times as planned in your curriculum. Should you need to return to the unit for other clinical purposes, this should be cleared with the corresponding clinical faculty for the course. If you are visiting someone on the unit, you need to request admittance to the unit using the visitation policy for that unit, including the standards for locked units. Please remember that issues related to HIPAA and safety as well as other considerations may be involved.

PARKING

A signed parking form is not required to obtain an ORANGE parking permit. Parking Services maintains a list of current students. Parking in visitor lots is NOT permitted. It's only permitted on your first day to get your parking tag (Parking Structure P2 and P3). Parking and Transportation Services has opened a Customer Services Office in UH South.
