A comprehensive medical service is available to students through the Student Health Centre. The Nurse-led Health Centre provides a triage service via telephone, thus enabling appointments to be scheduled directly with the Nurse without significant delays.
The Health Centre is by appointment only, however urgent cases will be seen daily pending an evaluation by the Nurse. A Student may also be asked to attend the health Centre for evaluation prior to seeing a GP in order to establish priority with their appointment.
All students need to register at Health Centre for first time appointments. As part of the registration process, it is recommended that students advise their Head of Department and the Student Health Centre of any medical condition that may affect attendance or academic performance. This information will enable the college to provide support and if appropriate, resources to assist the student during their studies.
The Health Centre is located in both the U-BLOCK, BIT Building (North Campus) and in A124 (South Campus).
The nursing service is available to all registered students free of charge.
