Queen's
College offers a campus Health Centre that is staffed by a
full-time Registered Nurse. The Health Centre, clinic, is open
every day during the academic year, from 8:15am to 3:15pm, for
all sections of the school (E.L.C., Primary and Senior
Schools), along with faculty and staff as well.

Medical
cards are kept on all current students. Parents are required
to complete the Medical Forms provided in the Admissions
Packet provided upon acceptance into any section of the
school, and again when the student enters Grade 7.
Included on
these forms are questions regarding immunization records,
medical history, any medication the student may be taking, and
family and emergency phone numbers so the Nurse can contact
parents/guardians in the event of student’s illness or
accident. Parents are required to sign the consent, so
students can receive medical treatment.

The Clinic
consists of two rooms, several bedded units, with laundry and
toilet facilities. The area is fully air-conditioned.
Students can
visit the Nurse at any time through the day; however, Break
and Lunch times visits are encourages rather than during class
time.
Minor
injuries and ailments are treated on site. If a student
becomes more seriously ill parents/guardians are contacted and
asked to collect the student. In serious injuries, on the
instructions of parents/guardians, the student is taken to
Princess Margaret or Doctor’s Hospital. Ambulances may be
called, depending on each individual case.
The Nurse
administers any prescription medicines in the Clinic. Medicine
is not to be carried around campus.
On-campus
eyesight screening is carried out each year. Referral letters
are sent to parents/guardians if defective vision is found.
Height and weight are recorded in Grades 1 and 2, and checks
for dental carries are also carried out.
