The mission of the Student Health Services is to enhance the educational process by providing quality health care and promoting an optimal level of health and wellness among the student body.
To fulfill our mission the student health services staff will:
- Provide quality health care
- Adhere to ethical, professional and legal standards
- Offer health promotion activities to advance student growth and development
- Refer students for services not available on campus
- Monitor for and respond to public health concerns
The program of personal health service includes provision and/or referral for medical, dental and surgical care, encompassing preventive, diagnostic, therapeutic and rehabilitative services for both physical and emotional problems. The focus is not only on the individual student, but upon the total university community's health and welfare. Self-responsibility is nurtured through the educational component of each encounter with the goal of developing a clientele that is increasingly independent and able to manage their own health needs.
