Health FAQs

If you cadet doesn't feel well, he should sign up for a sick call in the clinic. If the clinic is not busy with medicine or if it is an emergency, your cadet will be seen right away. If it is a non-emergency, the clinic will call for cadets as soon as staff is available. 

If a cadet needs more advanced care (sutures, fractures, hospital stay, needing new medications, etc.) the clinic will contact parents for permission and follow as needed during illness.

Option #1: Pick-up medication on campus. The adult who is transporting your cadet home may retrieve the medication at the cadet clinic, in accordance with the furlough departure schedule. 

Option #2: Cadets age 18 or older transport medication. If your cadet is 18 years or older, he may retrieve his own medication at the clinic upon his departure and transport his own medications home.

Option #3: Cadets under age 18 transport medication with authorization. If your cadet is under the age of 18 years of age, he may transport medication home with your written authorization. Click here to download an authorization letter.
