Promoting the physical and mental well-being of Cuyamaca College students is the goal of the Health and Wellness Center. Services available on a confidential basis through the nurse directed center include first aid, urgent and self-help care; vision, blood pressure, body fat and glucose screening; illness assessment; community referrals; and TB clearance testing. The Center is also a health education resource, and nutrition and substance abuse guidance are available. Information concerning the college's Drug Policy, the policy on Life-Threatening Illnesses, the blood donation reserve fund and Student Insurance is also available at the Health & Wellness Center.

The mandatory health fee provides for insurance coverage should a student be injured during a supervised, on-campus, or school related activity. Report all accidents and injuries to the health and Wellness Office. A $50 deductible will apply to each athletic claim filed. This student insurance is secondary to any group, noneet franchise, group practice, individual practice or other pre-payment coverage, which means the claim must be filed with primary insurance first.

Introductory paragraph: e.g., "Hello and welcome! We are very glad that you are interested in Cuyamaca College.
