After-Hours & Emergency Healthcare

After-Hours & Emergency Healthcare

Health Services at the Health & Counseling Center operates as a primary care clinic. While we reserve same-day appointments for more immediate injury and illnesses, those with urgent medical needs may be advised to visit an off-campus urgent care facility or emergency room. 

If you are experiencing a medical emergency, please call 911, Campus Safety at 503.943.4444, or go to the nearest emergency room. Expand the Local Emergency Rooms below for a list of local emergency departments.
