We need your input regarding the need for a School Based Health Center. Please fill out the survey below to the best of your ability. The survey consists of 10 questions and should take less than 10 minutes of your time. The survey is anonymous.
School-Based Health Centers (SBHC) provide basic physical, mental, and have the potential to provide other health services as needed. The health center provides more services than a school nurse and is not to replace the school nurse. The goal is to provide a resource center for wellness and prevention in an effort to reduce barriers to learning, such as absenteeism, mental health issues, and trauma.
