HEALTH PROMOTION SERVICES
Health Promotion Services provides free resources and programs, as well as risk-reduction information related to alcohol and other drug use, mental health, and sexual health. Resources on community health and self-care are also available.
MEDICAL SERVICES
Medical Services provides routine, preventive health care; evaluation or treatment of illnesses and injuries; travel medicine; and allergy shots and immunizations. An on-site lab, radiology department, and pharmacy also serve students. After-hours care is available through TimelyCare. In addition, WUPD and the student-run Emergency Support Team of licensed EMTs respond to urgent issues on campus 24/7. Psychiatry Services provides ongoing medication management for students taking medication to address their mental health concerns. It should be noted that we will no longer accept new or transferred patients who require prescriptions for stimulant medications. Stimulant medications include but are not limited to Adderall, Adderall XR, Ritalin, Concerta, and Focalin. If you are already receiving stimulant medications, we encourage you to continue working with your current provider. If you hope to start taking a stimulant to manage a health condition, we will try to assist you in finding an outside provider that accepts your insurance. A more detailed list of our services can be found on the Habif website.
