STUDENT LIFE
Student Health Center
The Student Health Center provides health care services to students enrolled on the Stephenville campus. The student health fee covers office visits. Reasonable fees are charged for treatment, injections, test and medications. Identification Card presentation is required with each visit.
Services provided include: prescription and over-the counter medications, treatment of minor/acute illnesses and injuries, suturing of simple lacerations, removal of simple skin lesions, services of a medical doctor or nurse practitioner, administration of allergy injections as directed by the student’s allergist, consultations regarding any health problems (including referrals), blood pressure checks and the continuation of health care following surgery or illness as directed by a physician.
Students who have graduated from a public school in Texas should have current immunization status. The State of Texas requires students who will be living on campus for the first time show proof of vaccination against Bacterial Meningitis. The vaccination for Bacterial Meningitis must be received at least 10 days prior to moving on campus. Tuberculosis (TB) testing, tetanus, meningitis, influenza (fall semester only), and hepatitis A&B vaccines are available at the Student Health Center. Physical exams and women’s health exams and birth control are also available for a reasonable fee. Health literature is available for personal and educational purposes.
