The goal of the health center is to provide every patient with a positive experience. One of the keys to achieving this goal is making sure there is little to no wait time for anyone, by maintaining scheduled appointment times.
We prefer you make an appointment ahead of time; however we know that illness is never predictable. We will always attempt to honor your urgent needs when possible.

Appointment times vary depending on symptoms. We have appointments available in 15-, 30-, 45- and 60-minute time frames to accommodate your needs.
The health center offers a range of basic lab services, including urinalysis, strep throat screening, pregnancy testing, and cholesterol, glucose, potassium and thyroid checks. You can also bring in orders from outside providers and have that lab work done at the health center.
Visiting the onsite health center is no different than going to a regular doctor’s appointment. You would handle time off requests and time reporting or schedule flexing the same way as you would for an offsite appointment.
If the external service provider is on the Epic electronic medical record (EMR) system, the health center provider will have access to your records and can use this information in providing your care.
An acute care visit provides immediate attention for symptoms such as a sore throat, fever or cough. A preventive visit is meant to avoid a future illness by methods such as an annual physical.
The health center providers will be able to prescribe medications, but you will need to pick them up from the Hampton City Schools Pharmacy or your preferred pharmacy.
The health center will also provide pre-employment screenings, annual work physicals and assessments for the transportation department, drug and alcohol screenings, and biometric screenings (full-time employees only).
When additional expertise is needed for your care, your QuadMed provider will work with you and your health plan to make the best specialist referral. After you see the specialist for your care, your QuadMed provider and the specialist will work together to ensure your health care needs are covered.
Please follow standard emergency procedures and contact 911 as appropriate.
The health center is run independently from Hampton City Schools. All information related to your personal health is kept highly confidential and is no different than information stored at an offsite health center.
Only general reporting information is provided to Hampton City Schools for the purposes of understanding how people are using the health center and the types of services that best meet the needs of employees.
Confidentiality is vital in a health care setting, and health care providers are held to strict patient confidentiality rules. All patient medical information will be maintained in the strictest confidence and is not accessible to your employer. Your health information is also protected by the 1996 federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, or HIPAA.
