The Health Service is a proud member of the Student Affairs Division at IUP. Skilled, competent, and caring health professionals provide patient education and medical services to students. These are designed to improve students' wellness and sustain their health. Our goal is to help students be successful in their academic endeavors. As members of both the IUP and health care communities, the health service staff works collaboratively to identify and advocate for student needs and to provide appropriate high-quality, cost effective responses.
For emergency care when we are not open, go to the emergency department of Indiana Regional Medical Center, or call 911 (9-911 if on campus). There is a blue emergency phone at both ends of the Center for Health and Well-Being. Here are other non-emergency locations.
All students must complete the online health forms. Freshmen cannot access these forms until they have registered for classes (during Orientation). This includes Consent for Treatment, Health History, Immunization Dates, Medical Insurance Information, Notice of Privacy Practices, and an emergency contact. Make sure to obtain immunization records from your PCP / family physician / pediatrician, or high school prior to logging into the website. For more info on submitting your health info, please watch this video.
