Priesthill Center Health Services

Health Services encourages the development of responsible healthcare habits by holding students accountable for their decisions regarding class attendance. Therefore, medical excuses are not issued for missed classes or examinations without students being evaluated by the provider/nurse. In the case of illnesses requiring an extended recovery period we will provide a written statement. These statements are provided on an individual basis. It is the student’s responsibility to communicate directly with his or her faculty or advisor. Faculty will decide whether the students may make up work missed and what effect the absences may have on the requirements of the course.

If experiencing any perceived life or limb threatening emergency such as:

No breathing and/or pulse
Unconsciousness
Difficulty breathing
Severe bleeding
Head or neck injury
Suicidal or homicidal intent
Severe pain
Seizures

Emergency services should be activated immediately by calling 911. Emergency care should NEVER be delayed due to being unable to reach the student health center.

During these hours you can live chat with their support agents directly from their support site or while you are completing your student workflow. This feature is located at the bottom right of the screen on either Med+Proctor site.

You may also email help@medproctor.com with your issue and this will create a ticket for their support agents to take care of you.

NOTE: You will see options to pay $10 to access extra benefits or “expedite review.” You DO NOT have to pay to submit your immunizations or “expedite review” unless you want to. Click the option to “Submit your health forms for free without the upgrade”.

Covenant College requires all incoming students to be up-to-date on the following vaccinations: Measles, Mumps, Rubella (MMR), Tetanus-Diphtheria (TD, Tdap, DTap-must be within 10 years), and Meningitis (received or waiver completed). Records of these immunizations are to be submitted to the College through Med+Proctor (https://secure.medproctor.com/Account/SignIn).

If a student chooses to waive immunizations on the basis of medical or religious reasons, there are exemption forms available. These forms are to be completed, signed, and notarized, then uploaded into Med+Proctor for review.

Students are required to provide either a signed immunization record or notarized waiver.

Students must utilize Med+Proctor for submission of health services paperwork. We will not accept emailed, fax, or paper copies. See Med+Proctor Instructions on health services site for further information.
