Hi all,
I have a rather specific question!
I'm a non-traditional student (post bacc) working on her prerequisites to do a biology degree at a four year university (University of Washington). In order to save money as much as I can, I'm working through general biology and general inorganic chemistry at a community college in Seattle with a set up specifically to help students transfer to four-year universities. I've just finished the biology with flying colors and am working on chemistry, so I will be transferring in the spring.
So, on to my question - On the "what are my chances" thread, someone recommended to me getting liability insurance through my school so that I can work hands-on in a clinic/hospital without incurring liability on the company. Unfortunately, my community college does NOT offer liability insurance! Believe me, I went all over today asking questions until I got a straight 'no' from their payroll department. Needless to say i'm frustrated--its extremely hard to get any sort of hands on experience or long-term observation.
So--does anyone have any recommendations for 1. how to get liability insurance outside of school without running up a ridiculous bill or 2. alternatives for this issue? My hope is to get hands-on experience, but I need to be going to school and working at the same time. Many thanks in advance!
