THE STUDENT HEALTH CENTER IS AN AMBULATORY HEALTH CARE FACILITY AND IS EQUIPPED TO TREAT SOME MINOR URGENT CARE ISSUES.
We are NOT an emergency room but we CAN assist students in obtaining emergency services. PLEASE CALL 724-738-2052 to speak to a nurse for assistance. If you are uncertain as to whether or not an ambulance is necessary, a nurse is available for phone consultation 24/7 during the academic year.
In the event of an emergency, the University Police can be reached by dialing (724) 738-3333. They can dispatch an ambulance for transport to an area hospital.
The Health Services van may also be utilized, as available for transporting some clients to area hospital emergency departments.
Psychiatric emergency assistance is available by contacting the nurse at 724-738-2052.
(Any treatment received while in the hospital is the financial responsibility of the student. Private health and medical insurance plans are usually acceptable.)
