During the fall and spring semesters, a medical provider is available.

The secretary is in Monday – Friday, 8:00 am – 4:00 pm. Hours for both may change based on holidays and staffing. Student Health Services is closed nights, weekends, and holidays. There is no medical provider on campus during campus breaks and summer and winter terms.

If you are unvaccinated and/or have symptoms of COVID, you must wear a mask.

CDC – Recommends everyday preventive actions to help prevent the spread of respiratory infections including:

  • Stay home if you are sick.
  • Maintain 6 foot spacing when around people even if they appear healthy.
  • Wear a mask when in public.
  • Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after going to the bathroom, before eating, and after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.
  • If soap and water are not readily available, use an alcohol based sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol. Always wash hands with soap and water if hands are visibly dirty.
  • Avoid close contact with sick people.
  • Avoid large crowds and gatherings.
  • Avoid touching your mouth, nose or eyes.
  • Cover your cough or sneeze into a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash. Use your elbow if a tissue is unavailable.
  • Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces using a regular household cleaning spray or wipe. (SHS has initiated enhanced cleaning protocols focused on frequently touched surfaces in our medical facilities and waiting areas).

The above precautions are for the safety and well-being for our community. We apologize for any inconvenience and sincerely wish the best health for everyone!
