Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Campus Health Clinic offer birth control?

We do not have samples of birth control.  However, if you have a current (less than one year old) NORMAL Pap Test done wt our clinic, or have a normal pap test and have established care with the Nurse Practitioner, we can give a prescription for your birth control.  This prescription can be filled at a pharmacy of your choice.  If you do not have a current Pap Test, you can schedule an appointment with the Nurse Practitioner to have this done.  If the test returns “normal”, we will give you a prescription for a year supply for your birth control.

Can the Campus Health Clinic store my medications for me?

The nursing staff at the Campus Health Clinic can store injectable medications for you.  We have a refrigerator and locked storage cabinets.  However, if the clinic is closed, you will not have access to your medication.  You will need to plan ahead.

Does the Campus Health Clinic give allergy injections?

Yes.  You will have to schedule an appointment with the Nurse Practitioner for an initial office visit to establish care.  We will need a copy of a physician order from your allergist/doctor.  We can store your allergy serum in our refrigerator.  Please note that we require you to wait 30 minutes after the injection to observe for any reaction.  The Nurse Practitioner must be in the office to receive your injection, so we do not give allergy injections from 11:30 a.m.-1:00 p.m.

What vaccines does the Campus Health Clinic offer?

We offer the Hepatitis B series (Series of 3 injections), Varicella (Chicken Pox, series of 2 injections), Menactra (Meningococcal vaccine), Tetanus and Diptheria Vaccine, Measles, Mumps and Rubella Vaccine and the Gardasil Vaccines (series of 3 vaccines).

Can the Campus Health Clinic refill by routine home medications?

Yes and no.  There are some medications that our Nurse Practitioner cannot prescribe.  You will need to schedule an appointment with the Nurse Practitioner to discuss your health concerns and medications.  You may also call the nursing staff at the clinic with a list of your medications and the nursing staff will let you know whether they may be prescribed by the Nurse Practitioner.
