OSD’s Student Health Services has a registered nurse on duty twenty-four hours a day. The SHS is a 16 bed facility. The school’s physician visits OSD several times each week but is on call for consultation. For emergencies, OSD will transport the student to the hospital or call 911 for an ambulance. OSD’s nurses monitor students care, prescription or over-the-counter medication, and medical treatment.
