Auto Accidents & Student Worker Injuries
For any serious, life-threatening medical emergency, call 911 immediately.
- We do not see patients for any motor vehicle accident related injuries. Students should proceed to a local emergency room or urgent care for any motor vehicle accident related injuries.
- We do not see patients for student employment injuries. If a student employee is injured, that individual is responsible for notifying their supervisor immediately, who will in turn notify the Office of Human Resources as soon as possible. In an emergency, the injured or ill student employee may visit any hospital, or medical provider, to obtain emergency, or urgent, medical care.
