Iunderstand the Health Center closes at 5 p.m. What if my student becomes ill after hours?
Appointments during regular operating hours are encouraged for non-urgent, routine and chronic health care needs. Students with an acute illness or injury may call for a same-day appointment or enter as a walk-in. STUDENT HEALTH SERVICES provides 24-hour care to urgent medical calls on campus through the EMS First Responders program. For either medical emergencies, or anytime when Thomson Student Health Center is closed, students should call 911 for assistance. The student is responsible for payment of charges for ambulances, other transportation, and medical care provided by local hospital emergency rooms or other off-campus health care providers. If your student should become seriously ill, he or she can call CAMPUS POLICE, and be taken to a local emergency room.
