ANNOUNCEMENTS

Looky, Looky!

2013 - Look at our awesome nursing staff working so hard together to grow their knowledge of our new EHR system! They are so excited to start and are ready to get rid of the paper!!! It takes a lot of practice to reconfigure workflow and transition thought processes. There will be mistakes made, but our team knows their stuff! They can make it through anything and have such a great attitude about the new changes being made.

 

Implementation of Electronic Health Records (EHR)!

2013 - The SHC is working hard to improve the quality of care provided to our students. We are scheduled to begin the implementation of our new Electronic Health Records on June 10th! Our system has always been on paper and with this change, there have been some hard decisions to make. The clinic will have to back down our patient schedule significantly to allow our providers and nurses to learn the system and ensure that the patient records are documented correctly. As our staff learn the system, we will begin to add more patients into our schedules. Please be patient with us so that we can work through this exciting change. The average amount of time it takes for a system to be fully functional again after implementation is approximately 12 months. Our team will do their best to improve this 'lag time' and will make every effort to accomodate our patient's needs. We love our students and thank them for helping us through this transition!!

 

THE NEW STUDENT HEALTH AND COUNSELING CENTER IS APPROVED!!

~October 18, 2012

On Tuesday, October 16th and Wednesday, October 17th, students voted to increase the Medical Service Fee to build a new Student Health and Counseling Center to accommodate the growing student body at Sam Houston Student University. The approval of the health center came through a landslide 74.6 percent “yes” vote by students, with 21.93 percent saying “no”and 1.72 percent not participating.

The referendum approval will raise the student health fee $37 in spring semester of 2013 to offer new services to students such as same-day appointments, a 24-hour nursing and counseling hotline, and an expanded pharmacy. The new 28,000 square-foot building will house health services and the counseling center and is expected to be completed by summer 2014.

Although there will be some cosmetic changes to the exterior of the building, below are renderings of the exterior and interior of the new building.
