Triage Nurse will prioritize and process urgent calls and walk-ins based on level of
acuity (based on your symptoms/complaint it may not be appropriate for
you to visit with a physician) and may require a longer wait. The
nurse is not able to give diagnoses or prescribe medications.
General Appointments:We
see students by appointment for acute and chronic medical problems and
injuries, preventive care (health risk assessment, smoking cessation,
allergy injections, immunizations, preparation for foreign travel, and
men's health issues). It is required and preferred that you call
for an appointment. We often have appointments available on the
same day that you call, especially if requests are made between 8 and
10 AM. Calling ahead makes it less likely that you'll have to
wait.
Getting the Most from Us
We
recommend that you select one provider to see you while you attend UVM.
(You are always free to change providers if you so choose.) If you have
a chronic health problem (such as asthma, diabetes) we strongly
recommend that you make an appointment to meet with a provider early in
your first semester at UVM. In addition you should have your provider
or specialist at home send information regarding your condition, and
what may be special issues for you while you are at UVM. For more
detail go to our Insurance information site.
Charges
If
you have paid the health fee there is no charge for regular clinic
appointments with primary providers or for nutritional counseling.
Charges are associated with some supplies and services including
laboratory tests, ECG, nebulizer treatments, crutches, braces, and
psychiatric services. If you have not paid the health fee, we will be
happy to see you on a fee-for-service basis. (Link to Student Health
Fee.)
Parking:
Parking
is available in the lot at 425 Pearl Street. Parking for students who
have business at the Center for Health & Wellbeing is available at
the driveway leading to the Pearl Street entrance. When you check in,
please notify the receptionist that you have parked your car.
