Welcome from the Director
We are all facing a time when financial constraints deeply affect the
way universities and colleges do business. These constraints in no way
decrease the significant challenges posed by the health issues among
students. By using creativity and increasing effectiveness, Student
Health Services continues to provide high quality care as well as
opportunities to address the health behaviors, risks, and preventative
needs of our students to ensure academic success and promote lifelong
health.
Our accreditation by the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care demonstrates
the excellence of our programs and services. In support of the
University and Division of Student Affairs, our mission is to provide
the highest quality of health and preventative care during your college
years to help you reach your academic goals and become good health and
cost wise consumers for life.
The Student Health Services staff
understands the profound impact that health problems can have on all
aspects of campus life. We offer a wide array of services, programs, and
activities to improve your health and encourage an environment in which
you can become engaged and learn. We hope you will use our services
during your time at ECU and please let us know how we may assist you in
meeting your health care goals.
Welcome to ECU and GO PIRATES!
