Health Service Student Success Center – Room 0222 siue.edu/healthservice (618) 650-2842 Health Service is dedicated to providing excellent clinical services, health education programming and health promotion presentations. The staff of Health Service believes healthy students are better able to succeed in their academic efforts and are committed to recognizing the value, worth and dignity of each individual. They do this by providing services in a caring and confidential manner, utilizing best practice standards. Health Service utilizes a state-of-the-art electronic medical record (EMR). It allows staff to privately communicate with you through a secure message system. The EMR also allows you to view your immunization status as well as complete required forms prior to appointments. As an enrolled student, you have access to: • Acute medical care for short-term or non-chronic illnesses (staffed by physicians and supported by registered nurses) • Appointments for physical examinations and treatments • Allergy injections • Immunizations • Women’s Health Services (staffed by a certified nurse practitioner) • Laboratory Services (This is a Clinical Laboratory Improvements Act (CLIA) certified laboratory of moderate complexity staffed by a medical technologist) • Pharmacy Services (staffed by a registered pharmacist) Health Service manages the Illinois immunization mandate for all enrolled students. All first-semester students must provide proof of immunity for measles, mumps, rubella, as well as a current (within 10 years) tetanus diphtheria vaccine by the first day of the first semester. Health Service works in collaboration with campus partners to provide health education programs to individuals in a clinical setting, and to groups in both classrooms and informal campus settings.
