Expanded Wellness Center Access

FOR STAFF WHO WORK AT LEAST 20 HOURS PER WEEK
Starting later this fall, the Wellness Center (clinic) will be available to any staff member who works at least 20 hours per week (excluding coaches, lifeguards, and limited-term employees). This means that employees in this category can utilize the clinic even if they are not on the district's health insurance plan. However, only the employee will be able to utilize the clinic. The clinic will not be available for their family members to use.

Only employees on the district's health insurance plan will be able to receive medications directly from the clinic.  However, employees not on the district's plan will still be able to have prescriptions written for them and sent out to an area pharmacy of the employee's choice.  Those employees and their personal medical insurance plans will be responsible for the cost of those prescriptions.  We will notify staff when this expanded access to the clinic goes into effect later this fall.

There will also be no charge for these employees to use the clinic.
