Background checks
The Wisconsin Caregiver Background Check Law, sections 48.685 and 50.065 of the Wisconsin Statutes, effective Oct. 1, 1998, requires criminal background checks for all individuals involved in health care delivery in the state. College of Nursing students are required to submit to a criminal background check before completing NURS 2075 by completing the following forms:
- Background information disclosure form (HSF-64)
- Marquette University consent and release form
All materials are available in the Office of Undergraduate Programs, Emory Clark Hall, room 251. It is the sole responsibility of the student to ensure that he/she has complied with this background check requirement. Students who have not met the background check requirement will not be allowed to participate in clinical courses.
Please contact the Office of Undergraduate Programs at (414) 288-3809 if you have any questions.
