Reproductive Health-Care Services for Students and Staff

Reproductive Health-Care Services for Students and Staff
At Redeemer’s University, we are committed to promoting the overall health and well-being of our students, faculty, and staff. As part of this commitment, the university offers a comprehensive range of sexual and reproductive health-care services through our fully equipped university health center. While we emphasize the importance of responsible behavior and adherence to university policies, we also recognize the essential need for reproductive health services and education within our campus community.
The sexual and reproductive health-care services offered at Redeemer’s University include:
- Sexual Health Counseling: Our health professionals provide confidential counseling on various topics related to sexual and reproductive health, including sexually transmitted infections (STIs), menstrual health, and general well-being. These services help students and staff access reliable information and support in a secure environment.
- STI Testing and Prevention: The health center offers routine testing and treatment for STIs, as well as information on preventive measures, such as safe practices and the use of protection. Our goal is to ensure that students are informed and equipped to make responsible health decisions.
- Family Planning and Contraception Information: Students can access information on family planning methods, including contraceptive options. Our counseling services are available to help individuals make informed choices about their reproductive health, respecting their privacy and personal needs.
- Menstrual Health Services: We provide guidance on managing menstrual health, including assistance with conditions such as dysmenorrhea (painful menstruation) and other gynecological concerns. Students can seek support on best practices for managing their menstrual cycle and maintaining overall reproductive health.
- Wellness and Preventive Health Education: Through workshops and health seminars, Redeemer’s University offers ongoing education on various aspects of reproductive health, such as healthy relationships, consent, and general wellness. Our health professionals provide practical advice on lifestyle choices that support reproductive health and well-being.
While Redeemer’s University maintains policies that discourage students from becoming pregnant while on campus, we are dedicated to providing necessary health education and services that encourage responsible decision-making and support the well-being of our community members. The health center’s services are available to both students and staff, fostering a supportive environment for everyone at the university.
Health Insurance for Students and Staff
Redeemer’s University ensures accessible healthcare by providing health insurance to all students and staff:
- Student Health Insurance: All students of Redeemer's University are enrolled in the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS), which covers a wide range of medical needs, including general medical issues and mental health services. This insurance scheme ensures that students have continuous access to essential health services throughout their studies.
- Staff Health Insurance:Health insurance for faculty and staff members is provided through AIICO Multishield. This insurance plan offers comprehensive medical coverage, supporting the well-being of staff members and encouraging a healthy work environment.
Through these insurance provisions, Redeemer’s University demonstrates its commitment to the health and welfare of both students and staff, ensuring that all members of our community have access to the medical care and support they need.
