Student Health Center

With healthy habits and using your SHC as a resource for your health needs, we can work together in keeping you and our campus community safe during this school year.  By following guidelines of the CDC (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/prevention.html) and UMW’s Return to Campus Plan (https://www.umw.edu/returntocampus/) we can make this happen together.

 Health Center staff is available to address your health concerns on the SAME DAY or the next day you call.  All appointments can be scheduled by contacting us at 540-654-1040.  Sick walk-ins can be accommodated (please call early).   After SHC business hours, you may call 540-654-1040, and press 2 to register your health concern with Fonemed.   A nurse from Fonemed will call you back and talk you through your concern.  Fonemed is a contracted nurse advice line available to UMW students after hours.  In the event of an emergency, call campus police at 540-654-4444.  If you can’t wait till the next day and need to see a medical provider after hours, please go to our COVID-19 page for local urgent care information.

Register at the Student Portal as directed above if you haven’t already and check the portal for any forms needed before each appointment.
