If I become
suddenly sick or injured can I be seen without an appointment?
At the Urgent/Walk-In
Clinic no appointment is needed. A nurse will assess you and schedule appropriate
care.
What if I am
sick and have no way to get from my dorm to the health center?
A student living
on campus can call Public Safety at any time and ask to be brought to the health
center.
If it is 2am,
do I need to wait until 8am to come over?
No, the Student
Health Service is open 24 hours a day when classes are in session except during
holidays, breaks and summers.
What if I feel
sick and don't want to stay in my room?
Students who choose
to do so may stay at the health center in the inpatient area.
I heard that
if I have a cold I can come and get some free medicine. Is this true?
You can visit the
Self Care Center and pick up a "cold pack" that contains some over-the-counter
medicine plus disposable thermometers.
Does it matter
if I am late for my appointment?
If you arrive late
for your appointment you may need to reschedule. It is advisable to arrive 10
minutes before your scheduled appointment.
Can I call and
speak with someone about health questions?
Nurses are available
to speak with you regarding health related questions and concerns. If the nurse
is busy, leave a message and the nurse will get back to you as soon as possible.
Where is the
Student Health Service located?
In Laurel Hall,
which is at the lower end of South Campus; follow the walkway south from the library.
We are on the NE side of the intersection of South College Avenue and East Park
Place.
Where can I
get the required medical history and immunization forms?
Forms are mailed
to incoming students. If you need another copy, call (302) 831-2226 or e-mail
your name and address to studenthealth@udel.edu
and we will mail another copy. If you need the form immediately, you
can download the forms and print them on your printer.
What will happen
to me if I do not return the immunization and medical history form?
The immunization
and history forms are a pre-matriculation requirement. Matriculated students need
to submit these forms to Student Health before starting classes. Any matriculating
student who does not return these forms or who returns a form incomplete or who
does not have the required immunizations or tuberculin ppd test or the required
signatures will have registration blocked for the second matriculated term. For
example, a student starting in the Fall who does not meet the requirement will
have their spring registration blocked (starting with Spring preregistration).
