Mission Statement

 
 
 

The primary mission of the Health Service is two-fold...

  • to provide quality medical care to allow students to perform optimally, physically and mentally, to achieve their academic and intellectual potential, and to minimize interruptions in their academic pursuits;
  • to provide strong, effective health education programs to help students develop healthy life-styles to enhance their intellectual growth and development as they become responsible members of society for the future.

Assuming the primary mission is achieved, the secondary mission of the Health Service is:

  • to maintain participation in various training programs, to help educate new generations of healthcare providers, to stimulate the professional staff, and to keep strong ties with Evanston Hospital, the Medical School and other professional schools, and
  • to encourage research whenever it is relevant to college healthcare and compatible with current services and available resources.
