Labs

There are uniform requirements; a program T-Shirt available for purchase in our Campus Bookstore and Personal Protective Equipment (provided by us) for the lab and placement courses.

There may be limited access to Centennial’s computers and specialty labs. For your health and safety, follow any posted protocols (e.g., physical distancing, cleaning, etc.).

Equipment

We have industry specific equipment for use in our HESM lab sessions.  Students will keep our equipment clean and well-maintained.

Software

Students have access to industry-leading software packages and bundles that can be found in rooms, labs, and podiums across our campuses. Computers at each campus will be loaded with the applications for use in your courses. To access these features, you must log in to the network using your student number. You can see a comprehensive list of software and software packages installed by room and by campus here.

Digital Resources

HESM program curriculum is updated to meet industry’s best practices and government guidelines.  We currently refer to PIDAC: Best Practices for Environmental Cleaning for Infection Prevention and Control | April 2018 for resources.  Best Practices for Environmental Cleaning for Prevention and Control of Infections in All Health Care Settings, 3rd Edition April 2018

Library Collections

Healthcare Environmental Services Management Program library resources

Instructors may make course readings available online through the eReserves service in eCentennial or as physical items that can be borrowed from a campus library on short-term loan. If your instructor is using eReserves, you will see a module in the course content on eCentennial. The list may include links to library resources like databases, articles, and eBooks; book chapters; web links; and open educational resources.
