Our School Based Clinic is located on the school campus to provide care to all students and faculty. When your child feels sick or hurt at school, the school nurse can refer your child to the on-campus Nurse Practitioner to be seen further. Our staff will contact guardians to obtain consent to treat and insurance or sliding scale information.
Also, if you would like your child seen with the provider, you can call to schedule an appointment with the school nurse or call the clinic directly. This can help keep you at work while your child gets the care they need and sent back to class (depending on the case).
If you see your child utilizing this service, you can be proactive by providing the necessary information to the clinic now. If your child is a current patient of MHHC, we will have access to their records.
