Common use of HEALTH AND SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS Clause in Contracts

HEALTH AND SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS. 1. I certify that I do not have any physical or mental conditions that will create a danger or hazard to me, to other participants, or to hosts in the Program. 2. I understand that I am solely responsible for my pre-Program, Program, and post-Program medical care in all respects, including, but not limited to, obtaining and taking necessary medication(s), vaccinations, and any other medical care and treatment. I acknowledge that I am advised to consult a physician qualified in travel medicine, immunizations, and infectious or tropical diseases prior to my trip departure. 3. I acknowledge that I may face challenges in managing chronic medical or mental health conditions or accessing medical or mental health care that is not comparable to the standard of care routinely available in my home environment. Mild physical or psychological disorders can become serious under the stresses of life while traveling. 4. I know that I have a right to participate in my Program without disclosure of any health information. Experiential Global Learning cannot decide whether I may participate in my Program as a result of any such disclosure. If I provide any health information voluntarily to Experiential Global Learning, it will remain private. UConn will only share this information with any necessary program staff, faculty, or appropriate professionals on an as-needed basis. If I do not provide this information to UConn before I depart on my Program, I will hold UConn harmless for any losses, damages and injuries that may arise as a result of my non-disclosure. I also understand that UConn’s ability to facilitate accommodations with my Program is greatly reduced if I do not disclose prior to departure from my Program. 5. I acknowledge that Experiential Global Learning will work with my Program to accommodate my disability and health needs that I disclose as feasibly as possible. I am responsible for contacting either the Center for Students with Disabilities and/or Experiential Global Learning as soon as possible to assess the availability of such accommodation in this Program. I also acknowledge that it is ultimately my personal responsibility to take care of my health and well- being. Experiential Global Learning cannot guarantee that UConn or my Program will be able to accommodate any or all of the needs that I disclose. 6. I understand that as a participant in a Program, I may be required to purchase the UConn- approved international insurance policy, which includes overseas coverage for medical services, emergency medical evacuation, and repatriation of remains, unless comparable insurance coverage is already provided by the host Program. I also may need to purchase insurance policies as required by my host Program or country. I understand the international insurance policy only covers the duration of the Program, and therefore I will not cancel my student health insurance or other medical insurance policy that covers me in the United States. Further, I understand that, though covered by the UConn-approved policy or other comparable policy, I may be required to pay or show proof of ability to pay in advance for most medical expenses, and that I must file claims directly with the insurance company myself. I understand and acknowledge that if I am required to be hospitalized while in another country or in the United States during this Program, I will be legally responsible for the payment of such hospitalization and that UConn does not assume any legal responsibility for such payment. 7. In the event of illness or injury, I hereby authorize UConn, the Program leader or other agents to obtain emergency or other medical treatment as deemed necessary, including administration of an anesthetic or other medication and surgery, and I hereby assume the cost of such treatment. I understand that this authorization is given in advance of any specific diagnosis, treatment, or hospital care being required but is given to provide authority and power on the part of UConn to give specific consent to the diagnosis, treatment, or hospital care which is deemed advisable in the best judgment of a licensed medical care provider.
