Student Health Services
The mission of Williamson ’ s Student Health Services is to provide students and employees physical and educational programs that promote general wellness and a healthy lifestyle . Health Services provides a safe , caring , respectful , and confidential environment advocating that a healthy mind and body will enable each student to reach his maximum potential . The Director of Health Services , a registered nurse , provides health services Monday through Friday from 7:30 a . m . to 3:30 p . m . in the Student Health Suite , located in the lower level of Rowan Hall . Health Services follows the guidelines of the American College Health Association , expecting students to accept responsibility for their own health and to realize that wellness and maintenance of good health habits should be a way of life .
The Director of Health Services provides appropriate care or referral for illnesses and injuries that occur during the academic day . Anyone requiring emergency treatment should report to Health Services immediately . Williamson accepts no responsibility for students who return from weekends or breaks unable to fulfill the required daily schedule . The college will contact parents to arrange for transportation and medical care when needed .
In the event that a significant physical , psychological , or emotional condition may hinder a student ’ s ability to complete the program , the Director of Health Services will recommend to the Provost the convening of a review committee . For further information , please see the college ’ s Student Accommodation Support Policy letter .
