Hargrave
Military Academy prefers that no student gets hurt.
However, Hargrave Cadets are known to work and play
hard. They do get sick, get a cut or even break a
bone.
Hargrave maintains a 24-hour fully equipped 18-bed infirmary, which is considered Hargrave's first line of defense in a Cadet health crisis. Four nurses man Hargrave's infirmary and work in 24-hour shifts.
Hargrave
nurses are defenders against heat, allergy and physical
trauma, respiratory issues and other critical ailments.
Our skilled nurses usually get to an injured Cadet
faster than our local EMS, which is only a block away.
They also work closely with Hargrave's trainer and
various sports related injuries.
The infirmary is also very capable in dealing with just about every non-emergency issue. The Hargrave nursing staff manages doctor's visits and prescribed medications for the entire Corps of Cadets. They ensure that the doctor's orders are followed, appointments are kept and that care is provided. |
