4. Vision
Student Health Services is the premier, integrated
health care system that anticipates and responds to
the holistic health and wellness needs of the
University of South Carolina. We empower
students, faculty and staff to be self-directed, well-
informed consumers of health care. Collaborating
with campus and community partners, we ensure
academic success and achieve our vision of a
Healthy Carolina.

5. Values

Respect
Integrity

Quality
Collaboration
Student Health Services believes that for a campus community to be truly healthy, it must be guided by the values of
multicultural inclusion, respect, and equality. Intolerance has no place at an institution of higher learning. Student
Health Services supports all individuals regardless of race, color, regional or national origin, age, gender identity,
religion, disability, illness, veteran status, or sexual orientation. We encourage the Carolina community to be actively
involved in the struggle to end oppression, to prevent bias-related violence in our campus communities, and to take
action to eradicate injustice.

6. • We promote the development of a healthy
mind, body and spirit by addressing all
dimensions of wellness.
• Programs and services across campus
contribute to an overall healthy campus
environment, including everything from
financial literacy workshops in the Student
Success Center and occupational consults
in the Career Center to the Patient-
Centered Medical Home Model within
Student Health Services and the use of
care teams.
A healthy campus environment in which to live, learn, work and play.

9. Patient-Centered Medical Home
In addition to the consistency
of the primary care provider
assignment, the Medical
Home model focuses on five
key aspects of care:
1. Quality and Safety
2. Accessibility
3. Patient-Centered:
patient/provider
relationship
4. Continuity (Coordinated
Care Teams)
5. Comprehensive Care

10. Patient-Centered Medical Home
• When visiting primary care, students will
be assigned to a primary care provider
who is part of a care team.
• What does this mean for students?
Students will see members from the
same care team with each appointment.
• This approach encourages
communication and partnerships
between individual patients, their
primary care physicians, other team
members (counselors, psychiatrists,
nutritionists, etc.), and when
appropriate, the student’s family.
