Health Services provides free and confidential services, including medical evaluations, for registered students. There is a small fee for laboratory tests, certain medications, supplies, and sports physicals. We also assist students with off-campus referrals as necessary. In the interest of health and wellness for all SMSU students, staff and faculty, Health Services actively promotes a tobacco and vapor free environment.
Fall and Spring Hours
A Registered Nurse is available for consultation Saturday-Thursday from 9am-4pm while classes are in session. Appointments are required, please call (507) 537-7202 to schedule. Medical Providers are available on site Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 1-4pm by appointment only. Please call to schedule.
Summer Hours
Health Services is not fully staffed during the summer. A Registered Nurse is available for non-urgent medical concerns on a limited basis. Please leave a brief message with your name, phone number and concern at (507) 537-7202 to schedule an appointment. All messages are confidential.
Urgent/Emergency Care
If you have a medical emergency dial 911
Avera Marshall Regional Medical Center Emergency Room: (507) 537-9300
If you are thinking about hurting yourself or concerned about someone, call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1-800-273-TALK (8255) toll-free 24 hours/day or Western Mental Health Center Mobile Crisis Response Services: 1-800-658-2429
Prolonged Illness
Students are advised to report pertinent medical facts to Health Services so instructors may be notified in cases of prolonged illness. We do not contact instructors for short-term illnesses or provide excuses for missed classes; it is the responsibility of the student to contact the instructors for assignments. Should a student find it necessary to withdraw from classes for medical reasons and they are unable to withdraw in person, they should contact the Registration Office for further details and implementation of the withdrawal.
Medical Records
If you need access to specific medical records you must submit a Consent to Release Health Information to SMSU Health Services. Immunization information submitted by the student cannot be duplicated or released as it is a 'self-report' form rather than an original document of the medical record completed within Health Services.
