WELCOME BACK LETTER: Health Services

Welcome Back Students!

Stay healthy this year by getting your flu vaccine this fall!  There will be on-campus flu clinics on October 8 and November 19.  Look for upcoming announcements for more details.

Should you require medical assistance during the year, Monmouth University Health Services provides a wide range of quality services to Monmouth University students and employees.  The Health Center is staffed with experienced, board certified nurse practitioners, a part time medical physician and psychiatrist as well as a full time substance counselor.  We are open Monday through Thursday, 8 am to 7 pm and Friday 8 am to 5 pm.

We are pleased to announce that Health Services has developed a cooperative program with Family First Urgent Care to provide students with access to medical services when the Health Center is closed.  Family First Urgent Care is located at 1910 Highway 35 South in Oakhurst, NJ.  It can be found at the intersection of West Park Ave. and Highway 35.  Operational hours are Monday to Thursday 9 am to 8 pm; Saturday 9 am to 3 pm and Sunday 10 am to 2 pm.

Students will need to use their individual health insurance plan or choose to self-pay when receiving services at Family First.  Family First accepts most insurance plans.  Please be familiar with your health insurance coverage and any fees/co-pays that may apply.

Students with no means of transportation should contact their RA or Area Coordinator who can assist with transportation arrangements for after- hours care.  Please call MUPD at 732-571-4444 for all medical emergencies.

Wishing you a healthy and happy academic year, 

Kathy Maloney and the Health Services staff
