In-School Health Services

It is the goal of In-School Health Services to assure that each child's healthcare needs are met by providing healthcare services, supporting the physician/patient relationship, and creating a link to a physician if none exists. Services are provided by a nurse practitioner, a physician medical director, nurse and medical office assistant.

Services include:

  • Assessment, diagnosis and treatment of minor illness and injury
  • Identification of conditions that may need further referral such as asthma, diabetes, high blood pressure
  • Athletic and routine physicals
  • Immunizations
  • Health screenings
  • Support of students and parents
  • Individual and group health education
  • Management of chronic illnesses
  • Mental health counseling/referrals as necessary

Services NOT available:

  • Family planning
  • Hospital Care
  • Treatment for complex medical or psychiatric disorders
  • X-rays

Why program is offered:

  • To improve the healthcare of the community
  • To ensure that no child is excluded from school
  • To meet the demand for services that have been identified by a majority of parents/guardians and teachers surveyed
  • To keep children in school, healthy and ready to learn

Participation is open to each student (of the schools we serve) whose parent or guardian has completed a student health history form and a consent form. All healthcare information will be shared with the child's primary physician.  If the parent or guardian identifies no physician, a referral will be offered.
