Health and Counseling
Providing medical and counseling services to all full-time °¼Í¹ÊÓƵstudents during the academic school year, Student Health and Counseling Center supports students by promoting and maintaining optimal physical and emotional health as they pursue their academic and life goals. We are located in the lower level of the Campus Center. Contact us at health@dordt.edu or 712-722-6990.
On-campus medical care
A registered nurse is on staff daily to treat a variety of medical concerns. Visits are free of charge; a fee is incurred for purchase of medications or when the services of an outside laboratory are utilized. We are open Monday through Friday when classes are in session. A walk-in clinic is available to students from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.; visits from 12:30 – 3 p.m. are by appointment.
On-campus mental health counseling
Provided by licensed mental health therapists. A limited number of sessions per year are available to students at no cost. Referrals for off-campus counseling are made for long-term needs, on-going therapy, more intensive services, or specialized services. Cost of off-campus referrals are the financial responsibility of the student. Counseling sessions are by appointment only.
