The Office of Disability Services coordinates the delivery of accommodations that are both reasonable and appropriate to eligible students with disabilities. Students seeking disability accommodations should contact the Office of Disability Services. Required documentation must be from a professional qualified in their area of expertise to evaluate a particular type of disability (e.g., physician, psychologist, licensed mental health counselor, psychiatrist, or audiologist).
Students may be asked to leave the nursing program, regardless of academic grade, if a physical or emotional condition exists, and the nature of which affects, or is affected by the student's performance in nursing. All considerations of students' mental or physical abilities will comply with KYSU's policies and procedures as set forth by Kentucky State University (Disability Resource Center), the Americans with Disabilities Act, and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act. Students requiring permanent or temporary accommodations in the performance of their practicum duties should contact the SON Program Administrator or the Disability Resource Center to discuss necessary accommodations.
Students who would like to receive accommodations on the basis of disability must self-identify, must provide documentation of the disability, and must request accommodation. Detailed information concerning disability services is available on the website: https://www.kysu.edu/academics/disability-svcs/index.php, or in person.
