Health Services - Teen Health Centers

Overview

Health care for teens is available at most Seattle Public Schools high schools. The teen health centers are operated by Puget Sound Neighborhood Health Centers, with funding support from the City of Seattle's Families and Education Levy.

Health Centers are staffed with school nurses, nurse practitioners, and mental health counselors. They provide all the services that family doctors provide and do so in a teen friendly setting. These services include medical check ups, routine and sports physicals, reproductive health care, treatment for acute and chronic illness, immunizations, vision/hearing screenings, dental referral, lab tests as well as education on how to live a healthy life. They also provide mental health counseling in addition to preventive education on tobacco, alcohol and other drug use, injuries and violence.
