As COVID-19 continues to impact the lives and health of millions around the globe, we know that many students have questions about how the spread of the coronavirus could impact their own physical and mental health. To help answer these questions, Health and Wellness hosted a Facebook Live session with Dr. Marie Caggiano of Health Service; Dr. Julie Ross of CMHS; Ariel Watriss, Nurse Practitioner and CARE Sex Health Specialist; and Jennifer Berrios, Associate Director for Administration for Health and Wellness.
We are a diverse team of healthcare professionals who are passionate about providing comprehensive and integrative health and wellness care to help all undergraduate and graduate students enhance and maintain their physical, social and emotional health. We offer free, respectful and confidential primary medical care, mental health care, preventive services and health promotion to help our diverse student population achieve their goals inside and outside the classroom. Through partnerships with other campus departments, student organizations and the community, we seek to enhance the health of the inclusive Tufts community and advocate for a respectful environment that enables healthy choices and fosters positive health decisions. Student input and feedback is core to our mission.
