We hope you have had a great summer and we look forward to a safe, healthy, academic year

As with many other things, due to COVID-19 we have had to make changes to our standard operating procedures to help ensure the inadvertent spread of the virus. 

Here is the process for requesting COVID-19 State Test at Northern Light Walk-In Care Presque Isle

  4.       Click the green box labeled “Schedule a Test”
  5.       In the Northern Light Walk-In Care Presque Isle box select “Request Appointment”
  6.       You can select to book online or call to book

Please know that the Emerson Annex will remain locked to minimize walk-in traffic.  Although the Health Service hours remain the same (M-F, 1 pm – 5 pm) in-person visits to the campus Health Service are by appointment ONLY.  We are now fully equipped to do remote, confidential tele-consults via Zoom or telephone.  To make an appointment for either a Zoom tele-consult or an in-person visit, call (207)768-9587.
