The Wilkes-Barre campus does not have a dedicated nurse on staff. In case of medical emergencies, please dial 911. All Penn State students can access the University Health Services Nurse Advice Line Monday‑Friday, 9:00 a.m.‑5:00 p.m. by calling 814‑863‑4463. The advice nurse can help students decide if their medical problem needs immediate attention and provides tips for self-care. Students may also seek out care from their family physician or contact a local facility for medical assistance. Most major insurance plans are accepted.
