4.3. Required Equipment

All students will be required to purchase a short, white lab coat and the “IHP PA Kit,” which will include all equipment needed for the duration of the program. The IHP PA Kit includes: a cardiology-grade stethoscope, a sphygmomanometer, a reflex hammer, one each 128 Hz and 512 Hz tuning forks, an ophthalmoscope/otoscope, and measuring tape. Information regarding purchase of the kit will be provided before matriculation into the program. Delivery of the kits will take place during the first semester. 

Additionally, students are required to purchase privacy screens for their laptops. Privacy screens must be used for all electronic examinations. 

Failure to report to any examination or clinical experience with the required equipment, will affect the student's grade for that exam or experience per the course syllabi.
