Afternoon Health Centre Services
From Monday September 9th, an ISB nurse will no longer be stationed at the Rajendra clinic (Breezeway) in the afternoons. The nurse covering that shift will remain in the recently updated Health Centre to treat patients till 8 pm.
After school hours, Cory Campopiano, our physical development coach, will still be in the breezeway clinic assisting with rehab and sports injuries.
If a nurse is needed during this time, they can be called to respond, or the patient can be sent to the clinic for treatment.
This change in practice is to provide a safer and more efficient service to our community and rest assured a nurse will be stationed in the Rajendra clinic for large sporting events.
Thank you for your understanding.
Mark Hevland – Director of Risk Management and
June D’Mello – ISB Health Coordinator
