Physician

The school doctor regularly visits the school nurse’s room and times are booked through the school nurse.

Student Health does not provide care equivalent to that provided at medical centers (vårdcentraler).

The school physician’s tasks include:

• Preventive health checks
• Consultation and advice to the school nurse
• Medical assessment requests from the school nurse, student or parent. These assessments can range from repeated problems with stomach pain or headaches to serious cases of school absenteeism.
• Conversations with students to find ways to maintain and improve their health.
• Some medical intervention such as acne treatment
