Children get fevers, twist ankles and need medicines on schedule — and when your child lives at school, you need to know exactly how all of that is handled. St. Peter’s maintains an on-campus health facility for first response, everyday illness and minor injury, with defined referral procedures for anything beyond its scope. No exaggeration, no vagueness: here is what parents should expect.
On-campus care
The health facility provides first response, basic assessment, short-term observation and care for common illness or minor injury, within the qualifications and resources of its staff. For anything requiring specialist or hospital treatment, students are referred promptly to appropriate external providers — and parents are informed according to the seriousness of the situation and school policy.
