The school has an on-site health clinic (Monday to Friday, 7 AM-4 PM) staffed by two full-time nurses and a consulting pediatric physician to provide primary care, screenings, and referrals for specialist care. In addition, we have partnered with Sunrise Clinics, a primary care group that provides both medical and mental health services, to install a medical kiosk on campus that offers tele-primary care and behavioral health support services from Guadalupe Hospital and Sunrise Clinic providers.

We have expanded access to on-campus and virtual mental health counseling and have employed a full-time Clinical Supervisor of Mental Health to coordinate care. Additionally, we have expanded psychiatric care from one to three providers to provide timely mental health follow-up support as needed. Outside clinic office hours, our on-call staff includes a nurse, a paramedic, an EMT, an administrator on duty, and residential coordinators, providing around-the-clock support for any student who needs it.

To support the work of our full-time Residential Coordinators, one teacher per dorm is now an “Assistant Residential Coordinator,” ensuring a greater presence of adults in the lives of our students. We have also modified the residential schedule to ensure increased cover during the day and 24-hour on-call availability, and ensured that Residential Coordinators are trained to call a nursing hotline provided by our insurance company as appropriate. Additionally, all Residential Coordinators are provided with enhanced training in first aid, mental health assessment and response, and medication administration to improve student wellbeing outside of health clinic hours.
