Health Service
Care is provided equally to all registered students regardless of age, race ethnicity, physical ability or attributes, religion, sexual orientation or gender identity. Welcome to the Health Service website. Health Service is open to all students from the College of Arts and Sciences, the Law School, and the Graduate School. Our goal is to provide safe, quality health care for students in the Lewis and Clark community so that they may thrive academically and personally during their years at Lewis & Clark.
We are located in Templeton Campus Center. The entrance is on the north side of the building, lower level, beneath the Trailroom.

Coronavirus (COVID-19)
Lewis & Clark is actively engaged in planning and preparedness activities related to the 2019 Coronavirus (COVID-19). For the best information summarizing the college’s planning efforts, please visit the Community Health Updates blog of the Health Promotion webpage.
The Health Service encourages all community members to take everyday actions to prevent the spread of all respiratory illnesses:
- Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
-
- Use alcohol-based (at least 60%) hand sanitizer if soap and water are unavailable.
- Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.
- Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces using a regular household cleaning spray or wipe.
- Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.
- Stay home when you are sick. Whenever possible, ill students should e-mail their faculty to inform them of absences. Employees should e-mail supervisors.
