The Caius Health Centre is run by the College Nurse. The centre is open to all students, staff and Fellows of Caius in need of medical advice, treatment, or a confidential chat. The centre is open regularly through the year.

A qualified Registered General Nurse, Natasha Kear, offers a ‘drop- in’ clinic at the Health Centre in U Staircase, Tree Court, on weekdays during Full Term, with reduced hourse out of term (see below). Natasha is there to help with minor injuries and illnesses, as well as a wide range of welfare issues whether related to physical or mental health, or other personal matters. In line with professional and legal requirements, all information disclosed is kept in the strictest medical confidence unless, in extreme circumstances, an individual is believed to be at risk of harm. Students falling ill whilst in College or lodgings should inform the College Nurse or the Porters, or access their GP service, as appropriate. No charge is made for any service or treatment offered from the Health Centre.

For medical help outside college surgery hours, please contact the Porter’s Lodge or your GP practice. In case of a serious medical emergency, call 999 and advise the College Porters immediately. You can contact the College Nurse or leave a message at the Health Centre by telephone or email.
