Student Health and Wellness
Serving the students at UIC Health Sciences Campus Rockford including medicine, MBT, pharmacy and nursing
Student Health and Wellness at the UIC Health Sciences Campus-Rockford was created for students of the University of Illinois Colleges of Medicine, Pharmacy and Nursing in Rockford in 2011.
Student Health and Wellness staff are committed to providing a safe, welcoming and affirming environment for all students. We commit ourselves to creating an environment based on values that allow our diverse student body to access care, receive high-quality services and take positive pathways to sound mental health.
We recognize that many factors – including culture, racial/ethnic identities, socioeconomic status, sex, gender, sexual orientation, political viewpoints, religious/spiritual and/or philosophical beliefs, and physical and cognitive abilities – are salient in students’ lives, and we are committed to welcoming all clients with respect and sensitivity.
