Our nurse led student health centre provides a medical and triage service to students which include;
- Acute minor illness and injury care,
- Sexual health and contraception,
- Mental health and wellbeing and counselling service referral.
- Weekly GP clinic.
Our student health centre is not a Primary GP service and students requiring chronic illness management should continue to see their own GP.
It is recommended that students advise the student health centre and their head of department of any medical condition that may affect their attendance or academic performance. This information will enable the college to provide support and if appropriate, resources to assist their students with their studies.
Our health centre provides professional and confidential care to students.
LOCATION
The Health Centre is located in both the U-BLOCK, BIT Building (North Campus) and in A124 (South Campus).
HOW MUCH DOES A VISIT COST?
The nursing service is available to all registered students free of charge.
