Medical Care at Warren Wilson

 

As a student you have choices about your medical care.

 

Some students chose to meet with our nurse, Pat Parker. Pat is a long-timer at Warren Wilson and understands student health in our community. She is dedicated to student well-being and believes that being in good relationship is in fact healing!

Pat is available on week days in the Murden Building, Health Center from 9 am until 4 pm. If you have a health question and want to discuss it with Nurse Pat you can walk to the center, or you can call her and schedule a time. Nurse Pat is here for you!  The number for Nurse Pat is (828) 771-2053. 

 

As a student you also have access to 24 hour care through TimelyCare. For many students this virtual medical care works well. You can access care 24/7 and have access to care from your personal computer or phone wherever you are. Nurse Pat will assist you in connecting with TimelyCare and can help you manage your care following your appointments when that feels supportive.
