On-call nurse:The on-call nurse is available after hours and weekends while school is in session. The number to call is
717-649-3153. If you are unable to reach her please contact Public Safety at 717- 691-6005 and they will contact the nurse for you. This information is also on the phonemail message left at ext. 6035.
Self Care Room:Located in Health Services, near the receptionist's area, is our "Self Care Room", which has been set up as a convenient place for you to diagnose and self treat simple respiratory infections. A structured questionnaire leads you through the process of evaluating your own symptoms and selecting the appropriate over-the-counter medications, if needed, and there are bins of over the counter medication available. Just leave a form for whatever medication was taken. If your assessment reveals symptoms which fall outside of the guidelines for self treatment, you may then see the nurse for further evaluation.
