Supporting student health with compassion and discretion

At Gould, student health is a top priority. The Health Center is staffed by four full-time registered nurses, a school counselor, an administrative assistant, a certified athletic trainer, and a network of local providers that collaborate to ensure students are safe, supported, and able to thrive. The Health Center is located in the center of campus and is open daily for drop-ins and to safely distribute medications. Whether managing a cold, recovering from injury, or navigating stress, students know they have a professional team they can turn to.
