Nurse Practitioner
J Lloyd Crowe Secondary Primary Care Clinic
We are aware of the challenges that many of our students and their families face in accessing health care. To address the needs of our students, we will continue to provide the services of a Nurse Practitioner at Crowe’s Primary Care Clinic.
A licensed Nurse Practitioner with a Master’s Degree in Nursing and a family Nurse Practitioner designation visits JLC every second Thursday. A Nurse Practitioner has an expanded health care role. They can support a range of health concerns such as:
- General questions
- Order blood work
- X-rays
- Specialist referrals
- Treat minor infections
- Perform pregnancy tests
- Birth control prescriptions
- Screen for venereal diseases
- Initial management and assessment for anxiety and depression
