The University Health Center offers the option to speak with a nurse by phone during regular business hours for students who need help determining the best course of care for a medical problem. This is a quick and accessible way to determine whether making an appointment is the right decision or whether self-care measures are appropriate.
It isn't always easy to make these decisions, which is why our Registered Nurses are here to help.
Call 540-568-6178 and choose option #2. If you have health-related questions, you can email a nurse directly at askanurse@jmu.edu
The University Health Center strives to make its programs and services as accessible and inclusive as possible. Pleasee let a staff member know if accommodations are needed or if the University Health Center is difficult to access for any reason.
