Health Services

The Health Services Department is committed to WESD's greatest assets - its students, staff, and visitors. Thus, each of the 32 WESD schools and the NBA program employs a caring individual to maintain and promote the health and safety of each person on its campus.

Health Services should be well integrated into the school day with minimal disruption of classroom time. The components of health services may include:

Hearing and vision screenings, referrals, and follow-ups
Communicable disease management
Collection and compliance monitoring of immunization data
Promoting a safe and healthy learning environment
First Aid care
Attending to illnesses and injuries
Completing state reports for mandated health information
Child abuse reporting
Accurate, timely and complete documentation of all activities.
