Health

Red River College Polytechnic’s Health Services provides students and staff with a variety of health and wellness information for general interest, immunizations, ongoing health condition maintenance, plus treatment for injuries and illness.

Students and staff are welcome to walk into the Health Services office without an appointment. Nurses will assess and treat illnesses and injuries, and may recommend additional services on campus or at other community resources.

Visits to the Health Services office are kept confidential according to provincial legislative requirements. Injuries occurring on campus or as part of a work experience/training must be reported to the Health Services office as soon as possible after the injury.
