The mission of Student Health Services at Eastern Kentucky University is to promote the mental and physical well-being of our students through disease prevention strategies and acute care of illness. Students are better equipped for academic success when they are physically and mentally healthy

Student Health Services has three primary goals: first, to address any acute medical condition that threatens health, interferes with function, reduces performance, and serves as an obstacle to learning and personal growth; second, to educate our student body on healthy lifestyle choices that promote wellness and reduce the chances of disease—the preventive approach; third, to serve as a source of information and access to community based assistance programs. Services provided at the Health Center include:

  • Outpatient acute medical care
  • Allergy shots
  • Basic laboratory tests
  • Certain immunizations
  • Sexual health/STI testing and treatment*
  • Tuberculosis skin testing
  • Gynecologic health*
  • Mental health
