We believe good health is essential to optimal success in college. Student health services provides treatment for acute illnesses, preventative health services, and health education.
Students are encouraged to use the more cost effective student health services. Nursing services and physician assistant services are available to students at no cost. Services are available during clinic hours. The physician assistant is available on a limited basis. His hours are posted in the Health Center. An appointment is necessary to see the P.A.
The staff of Student Health Services provides presentations to the university community on a variety of wellness issues. The Health Center is located in West Hall and is open on a regular basis during the school year.
Emergency Services medical care is available 24 hours a day at Cape Fear Valley Medical Center, a few miles from our campus. There are two convenient care centers, Urgent Care and Express Care, near our campus for treatment of less urgent medical care when the health center is closed. The student is responsible for charges incurred at off-campus medical facilities.
