Visiting the Student Health Center

Posted on by Andrew Brown

The Student Health Center made plans this summer that will protect students and the campus community in fall. This term: 

  • The Student Health Center​ will provide enrolled students services by video visit, telephone visit, or in the clinic. No walk-in appointments will be available at this time. To schedule a visit, call 269.337.7200 for screening. Students must have an active MyChart account.
  • All appointments will be screened by phone to allow for physical distancing. Only students who require services not available through phone or video will be offered in-clinic visits. 
  • Only scheduled appointments will be allowed in the office. Students shouldn’t bring others with them.
  • Fewer appointments and longer appointment times might be necessary to disinfect spaces. Please be on time.
  • Anyone entering the office must wear a face cover entering the office, in the exam room and in all clinic locations.
  • Students will notice barriers installed in the office and staff will wear additional PPE.
  • Students will be asked to use hand sanitizer when they enter the office and will be given a disinfecting wipe to clean any touched surfaces upon leaving.
  • The Student Health Center will no longer offer magazines, self-care selections or any other item in the waiting room that is difficult to clean. 
  • There will be limited self-care supplies in the residence halls. Students who need self-care supplies should contact the Student Health Center at healthsv@kzoo.edu, 269.337-7200 or MyChart. Students will receive the items in their campus mail box.
  • The Student Health Center will provide COVID-19 testing and daily-symptom monitoring for students. We will send an announcement with further details soon.

The health of students and the campus is our top priority. The College is working closely with our local health department, and taking guidance from the American College Health Association and the Centers for Disease Control to keep up to date. Policies and procedures will be adjusted as needed to mitigate risk. 

Thank you for your cooperation.
