Patient-Centered Primary Healthcare

The Student Health Center provides patient-centered primary healthcare to our student community in a confidential, supporting environment.

In addition to providing individualized health care, we also offer health education and wellness both on a one-to-one basis and through campus-wide programming. We encourage students to take responsibility for their own health by providing information and counseling students on health options. The Student Health Center is open five days a week during the academic year, with reduced hours during college vacations and breaks.

Along with assistance for many other health-related issues and questions, Champlain provides the following health services to all students:

  • Illness & Injury Evaluations
  • Lab Studies for Diagnostic Testing
  • Health Counseling
