Health Services
About Health Services:
Health Services is staffed by Jen Winters, a Registered Nurse. The services provided attend to the needs of the Manor College Community including resident, commuter students, staff and faculty.
At Health Services, we take your health and well-being personally. Maintaining good health is important to the successful completion of your college career. If you don’t feel well, it’s hard to concentrate on your studies or to participate in extra-curricular activities. Time can make a difference, so don’t wait until you feel worse. See us at the onset of illness so that we can evaluate you and start you on a course of treatment early. You’ll be back in good health sooner, which means you’ll be able to get back to your studies and other activities more quickly.
Hours:
Monday – Thursday: 8:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.; Closed 12:00 – 1:00 p.m. for lunch
Closed: Semester Breaks and Summer
The office is located in Mother of Perpetual Help Hall, second floor.
Health Services provides programs and services that address the health needs of Manor College students:
- Primary assessment and treatment of health problems and injuries
- Distribution of certain over-the-counter medications at no cost
- Health education/information
- Referrals to campus and community resources
- Blood pressure screening
A nurse is available to assist you during office hours. There is no charge for Student Health Services. However, if you need to see a doctor or make a visit to the emergency room for evaluation and treatment, you will be asked to supply your health insurance information and you are responsible for any charges. It is a good idea to always carry a copy of your insurance card in your wallet.
Health Services is able to assist with bites, scrapes, burns, sprains, nebulizer treatments, over the counter medication treating fevers, pain, cold/flu symptoms, hypoglycemia treatment, diarrhea, stomach upset, etc. Epi Pens and Narcan are also on hand for emergencies.
Students: If you did not submit a medical form, you will be sent to the emergency room and will not be able to be seen in Health Services due to the lack of information about your medical history and allergies.
(Any questions or concerns regarding the medical form please contact our office directly for accurate information).
Note that there is NO physician on campus. Please bring any prescription medication you may need with you to campus.
