Welcome

 
 

 

Florida Gulf Coast University offers a number of health services to its students. Located in the Wellness Center Building, the Student Health Services, a member of the American College Health Association, provides a variety of services from immediate triage and basic care to education and health awareness programs.  The staff consists of licensed physicians, nurse practioners and RN's.

 

Mission Statement

The mission of Student Health Services is to promote the overall health of students and a healthy campus environment. Student Health Services aims to keep the entire campus community free of communicable and vaccine preventable diseases. The developmental stage of the student and the cultural and social environment will be considered in the delivery of health care and education of the student. We strive to provide comprehensive quality health care to students in a cost effective, efficient, professional and accessible manner. We assist students in their acquisition of the knowledge and skills to promote healthy behaviors and lifestyle choices and thus enhance the learning environment. We strive to support the student’s overall educational experience

All of us at Student Health Services are pleased to announce that we have recently been accredited for 3 years by the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC). This is an important milestone in the continuing growth and success of our health care organization. Accreditation shows our commitment to providing the highest levels of quality care to our patients, and the same high level of conduct in our business practices. Accreditation by AAAHC is proof of this commitment, and signifies that we have met the rigorous standards of a nationally recognized third party.

We are proud to have met the challenge of accreditation, and intend to consistently uphold the principles of quality improvement and patient care in the future.
