A place you can trust for urgent care, preventative care, and answers to your medical questions.
At the Saint Joseph’s College Health & Wellness Center, we’re committed to answering your questions and helping you get the care you need.
The Health and Wellness Center is located on the first floor of O’Connor Hall. When you enter campus, it is the first building on the right. In this new space, we have added 3 new exam rooms, a triage room, two quiet rooms, and a new lab.
We will still be offering all the same comprehensive services such as physical examinations, blood work, prescription refills, and any other needs you may have.
This year we will require that you set up an appointment in advance of coming to the Health Center. Walk-ins are no longer available. It is as easy as a few clicks from your cell phone or laptop to register for an appointment. We have time slots available every 15 minutes. In order to keep everyone as safe as possible, we will be screening everyone who enters the Health and Wellness Center, and requiring you to wear a mask, if you are not feeling well.
*You can set up your appointment here: https://sjc-health.titaniumhwc.com/
As always, if there is an emergency, and you need to be seen right away, please call our office at 207-893-6634. We will be open Monday – Friday 8:30am-4:30pm. For after hour emergencies, please contact Campus Safety at 207-893-7911.
Another feature we are offering this year is our new Telehealth platform upon request. With Telehealth, you can stay in the comfort of your room and have an office visit online with one of our Health Center staff.
Health Forms
Maine State law requires written documentation on all students’ immunization history. Requirements are listed below and must be completed prior to coming to the college campus. In order to provide quality medical care while you are on campus, we require knowledge of your previous medical history and a current (within the past one year) pre-entrance physical exam by your physician. If you are chronically ill or take medication regularly, or if you are coming to Saint Joseph’s with an unhealed injury or problem, please ask your physician to send a complete report, including a treatment plan. If you are on regular medication, it is recommended that you bring a prescription for that medication with you to school so that it may be filled at a local pharmacy, if necessary. Most medications can be refilled by the Health and Wellness Center staff with appropriate follow-up appointments.

COVID Vaccine Message for New Students 2022
COVID-19 Vaccine Requirements
Saint Joseph’s College of Maine prioritizes the health and safety of our entire community – students, faculty, and staff. All members of our community, including any residential or commuter student without a medical exemption, are required to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19.
What does fully vaccinated mean?
- Two Moderna or Pfizer vaccine doses, plus one booster shot, or
- One Johnson & Johnson vaccine dose, plus one booster shot.
Students planning to attend in-person classes at SJC for the coming Fall semester must submit proof of full vaccination to the SJC Health and Wellness Center via this encrypted form by August 1, 2022. If you have not yet begun the vaccination process, you must receive your initial round of vaccine dose/doses by the same date.
If you have a valid medical reason for not receiving the COVID-19 vaccine, please contact our Health and Wellness Center to discuss the process of validating your exemption. SJC does not accept religious exemption requests.
Additional booster shots may be required at a later date. The College’s Pandemic Response Team will make those determinations based on a variety of factors, including new recommendations from public health authorities.
Student Health Insurance Program
In accordance with federal law and the College policy, all students must be enrolled in a form of health insurance. To this end, students are automatically enrolled in the Saint Joseph’s Student Health Insurance Program for which a separate fee is charged, viewable on each student’s billing statement through the Treasurer’s Office. Students have the opportunity to opt out of the automatic Saint Joseph’s Student Health Insurance Program, provided the student or family can provide proof of coverage by private medical insurance. Instructions for providing proof of coverage are below. The College is pleased to partner with Cross Insurance Agency as our student health insurance manager.
