Hi, I'm about to start Nursing school next week. I also have severe ulcerative colitis and I am on Remicade every 6 weeks. As a result of the Remicade I am not able to receive any live vaccines. My recent titres show that I have no immunity to mumps, and was indeterminate for rubella. Can they deny me clinical placement -- and subsequently employment down the line -- because I cannot receive these vaccines? I absolutely would get them if i could, but I can't come off Remicade. The school I'm attending has been absolutely no help; they say they've never been asked about this situation before and have nothing to compare it to, so they cannot guarantee me placement until the time comes. I'm just very frustrated and hoping someone else has gone through this. Any of the threads I've searched so far have been about students who wish to not receive the vaccines for personal reasons. I'm in Ontario, for reference.
