Health Service (N-100) is where the school nurses are located. The school nurses see students who become ill during the school day. They are also responsible for all the health-related school administrative functions such as maintaining immunization records. The school nurses in N-100 can call over to the Health Center to make a same-day appointment for an ill student.
