Long term prescriptions: A student’s physician must document medication on the health record provided by the college. The student must see to it that he/she has sufficient supply (or a refill prescription) to last until a return home.
Syringes: Students requiring the use of syringes must record that need on their health record form and personally notify Health Services.
NOTE: Used syringes must be sealed in a sharps container and must not be disposed of in the trash! Full containers can be brought home or to Health Services for disposal.
