Health Services exists to enhance health, safety and wellness of students by providing compassionate and quality health care services. Care is given for minor illnesses and injuries.
The office of Health Services, located on the first floor of Calvin Ulrey Hall, is staffed by a registered nurse and student health assistants.
Health Services is intended to complement, not replace, a student’s personal health care provider. There is no charge for students registered at Manchester University, however more serious problems may be referred to a local physician, family physician or specialist. The cost of health care beyond that provided by the center is the responsibility of the student or the student's family.
Health education is an important part of the services available to the students. Individualized information pertaining to the specific condition or illness is given to each student who uses services of the center. Cause, care, prevention and after-care are all addressed.
