Patient Rights and Responsibilities
Our goals are created in the spirit of enhancing educational experience by modifying or removing health related barriers to learning, promoting optimal wellness, and enabling individuals to make informed decisions about health related concerns. We strive to empower members of the University Community to be self-directed and well-informed consumers of health care.
The goals of the Student Health Service are to:
- Provide primary health care services which are accessible, cost-effective, and of high quality to eligible members of the University Community.
- Facilitate student retention and optimize the student experience by avoiding unnecessary interruption in the student’s education and experience through early and ongoing attention to the health-related concerns.
- Provide individual and group health education services, which promote healthy lifestyles within the University Community.
- Serve as an academic resource through the offering of educational experiences for selected students pursuing careers in the health-related professions.
- Provide all services in a professional, caring, and considerate manner to help ensure that individuals and groups receive the optimum benefit from services rendered.
Diversity
Student Health Service believes that for a campus community to be truly healthy, it must be guided by the values of multicultural inclusion, respect, and equality. Intolerance has no place at an institution of higher learning. Student Health Service supports all individuals regardless of race, regional or national origin, age, gender, religion, disability, illness, or sexual orientation.
