Promoting wellness on campus<\/h3>\n
If you are experiencing ANY <\/strong>respiratory symptoms: fever, cough, runny nose or sore throat, we do REQUIRE<\/strong> you wear a mask or recommend you reschedule your appointment.<\/p>\n Medical Providers are here to help and are available through in person and Telemedicine<\/a> options. We provide a wide array of medical services and resources to the entire University community. Our comprehensive spectrum of care includes:<\/p>\n \n\n \n \n \n<\/div>\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n \n\n \n \n \n<\/div>\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n \n\n \n \n \n<\/div>\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n<\/div>\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n \n\n \n \n \n<\/div>\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n<\/div>\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n \n\n \n \n \n<\/div>\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n<\/div>\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Sign-in to your CHS Portal<\/a> to schedule an appointment.

Self-disposal of used at-home medical sharps is legal in Arizona, but specific safety precautions must be followed.<\/p>\n A wide variety of governmental agencies, as well as private organizations and businesses, provide resources for people looking for safe and responsible methods for disposing of needles used at home.<\/p>\n You can visit these websites for more information:<\/p>\n There are a number of private companies that offer sharps disposal mail-in programs. Contact information can be found in the resource listings above.<\/p>\n Many pharmaceutical companies also provide mail-back programs for patients using certain home-injectable medications. You can find information and determine program availability by visiting the website for your specific medication.<\/p>\n Keep yourself and others safe by disposing of medical sharps responsibly.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n CHS Parent Resource Guide<\/a><\/p>\n Parents<\/strong><\/p>\n The education of your student involves more than just the classes in which they are enrolled. It involves learning how to manage time, finances, and yes, even health care.<\/p>\n Campus Health Services is a resource for services and information to keep your student’s mind and body healthy while at NAU. Campus Health Services is committed to the concept of wellness. We hope you view us as a center for wellness as well as a place for your student to come when they are ill or in need of care.<\/p>\n As a parent, you can ensure that your student is properly equipped to be successful when managing their health care by providing the following:<\/p>\n • Insurance ID card This information will assist your student’s provider in properly assessing all symptoms and determining the best course of action in treating and meeting your student’s needs.<\/p>\n Parental access to student’s health records<\/strong><\/p>\n Due to federal confidentiality laws, Campus Health Services is not able to communicate with parents without consent from the student. These laws are designed to protect one’s privacy and control how personal information is accessed and disclosed. These laws are commonly referred to as HIPAA<\/a> (the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) and FERPA<\/a> (Family Educational and Rights Privacy Act). HIPAA<\/a> is designed to protect an individuals medical information while FERPA<\/a> is designed to protect an individuals educational and financial information.<\/p>\n With your student’s permission, Campus Health Services staff may discuss your child’s health concerns or needs with you. Students will need to sign a release of records allowing staff to discuss specific medical or mental health issues.<\/p>\n Immunization Requirements<\/strong><\/p>\n Before new students can register, they are required to submit proof of two MMR (measles, mumps, rubella) immunizations. We also strongly recommend vaccination against meningitis ACWY and B, influenza, tetanus and pertussis. Learn about the immunization requirements and recommendations<\/a>.<\/p>\n Health Coverage Options<\/strong><\/p>\n Every student is welcome to receive care at Campus Health Services regardless of insurance coverage. While insurance is not required to receive care or treatment, all students are strongly encouraged to have some form of health insurance. All international students are required to have UnitedHealthCare Student Resources (UHCSR) Student Health Insurance or a waiver from the international office. NAU Campus Health Services offers both a discount service plan, Louie Care, and a medical insurance plan through the Arizona Board of Regents from UnitedHealthCare Student Resources (UHCSR) Student Insurance. We are contracted with several insurance companies and can bill your insurance company for visits at our health center. It is the responsibility of patients to verify coverage before any visit at Campus Health. Please visit our Insurance and Payment page<\/a> for the most detailed reference to who we are contracted with and how to pay for your visit.<\/p>\n Note: Counseling Services does not bill any insurance.<\/p>\n Providers and Accreditation<\/strong><\/p>\n The providers at NAU Campus Health Services include board certified physicians, nurse practitioners, physical therapist, psychiatric providers, licensed psychologists and counselors, and a dietitian. NAU Campus Health Services offer laboratory, primary care, women’s health, osteopathic medicine, travel medicine, counseling, mental health, and nutritional services.<\/p>\n NAU Campus Health services is accredited through the American Association of Ambulatory Health Care.<\/p>\n First Aid Kit Recommendations<\/strong><\/p>\n On the list of items to include when moving your student to campus should be a first aid kit. Minor injuries and illness can occur at any time and it’s best to be prepared. We recommend that your student’s first aid kit include:<\/p>\n Psychiatry and psychology are overlapping professions and often get confused. Both of these professions help people that experience emotional distress. Many people receive help from both of these professions. It is up to you where you would like to begin. If the clinician you meet with feels the other profession would be helpful we will refer you. Fortunately, campus health services has both psychiatry and psychology clinicians.<\/p>\n Psychiatry<\/strong> is the treatment of medical mental health disorders and often treated with medications.<\/p>\n Psychology\/Counseling<\/strong> works with emotion and behaviors and treatment is focused on counseling, behavioral change and psychotherapy.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n Northern Arizona University is committed to protecting your medical information.
