Nurse on Campus

You can also drop by a Nurse on Campus booth at different spots around campus to get health tips and resources.

Vaping Risks

Health Canada is advising Canadians who use vaping products to monitor themselves for symptoms of pulmonary illness (e.g., cough, shortness of breath, chest pain) and to seek medical attention promptly if they have concerns about their health. Vaping is not without risk, and the potential long-term effects of vaping remain unknown.

Fentanyl and Naloxone kits

If you’re at risk of an opioid overdose, or likely to witness a family member or friend at risk of overdose, you can call to book a confidential appointment for a free naloxone kit.

Specialist referrals

To see a specialist in Canada, you'll need a referral from a doctor or a nurse practitioner first.

Doctors and nurse practitioners at Student Health can provide you with a referral and help you make an appointment with any specialist. Specialist appointments are in the clinic or off campus.

This is the most common experience at Student Health Service and may not be the same for everyone. When necessary, we make adjustments to meet a student's individual needs.

Release of information
Student Health Service cannot release information about you, the type of services you access, and the content of your appointments to anyone (including family) without your written permission, except for: 

• Information indicating that a child is in need of protection.
• Information indicating that you may constitute a risk to yourself or others (exception: Naloxone appointments are always kept confidential).
• Information that leads to concerns about public safety.
• Other statutory or common-law provision that requires or authorizes the release of confidential information.

If you wish to release your medical record information to another individual or medical care office, you’ll need to fill out an authorization form at your appointment. 

If you have any questions about confidentiality, you’ll have an opportunity to ask during your visit.
