Health Services
Babson-Olin College Health Services ("Health Services") serves both Babson and Olin students. The following services are available to all full-time Olin College students: diagnosis and treatment of illnesses, evaluation and treatment of injuries, reproductive examinations, gynecological care, including contraceptive management and counseling, pregnancy testing, emergency contraception, sexually transmitted infection testing and treatment and administration of immunizations injections. There is no cost to students to visit Health Services for routine care. However, students may incur costs related to medical tests, prescriptions, immunizations or services provided off-campus.
Required vaccinations
Each year new students are notified by Health Services about required vaccinations (e.g., MMR, tetanus and diphtheria toxoids and acellular pertussis vaccine (Tdap), hepatitis B, meningococcal meningitis immunizations, varicella, Tuberculosis).
Confidentiality
All visits to Health Services and conversations with the staff are confidential. Your permission must be obtained before Health Services will give information to anyone not directly connected with your care. This includes parents and college officials.
There are limited exceptions to this policy as we are required by law to report certain communicable diseases to the Public Health Department and in life-threatening situations.
