• Submitted by Lillie Simo on 2010-01-17

• Augustana College tries to make students feel at home by eliminating the unnecessary stress caused from trying to find quick, reliable medical care in an unfamiliar area. Augustana College has made arrangements with Trinity Medical Center and its subsidiary, the Trinity Express Care Clinic, to provide around-the-clock health care to its students. Free transportation is provided to all health care providers (includes dentists, optometrists, mental health providers and pharmacies) in the Quad-City area by the Dean of Students Office.

  The Trinity Express Care Clinic is a walk-in facility located approximately one mile from campus and is open seven days a week. The Express Care Clinic will initiate an insurance claim or accept cash or credit card for payment. Students who receive regular allergy shots will find that the Clinic can meet their needs.

  Walgreen Drug Store is located on 30th Street in Rock Island. Osco Drug is located on First Street and 20th Avenue in Moline. Both locations are in close proximity to the clinic and to campus.

  Between 8:00 am and 6:00 PM Monday through Friday, students may use a free shuttle service provided by the College. Service is also available with Lucky Cab Co. when the free medical transport is not in operation. The taxi will pick students up within 30 minutes of a call and transport them to the medical destination free of charge by showing an Augustana student I.D. 

  Students may use the services of Trinity Medical Center if necessary. The Trinity Express Care Clinic is recommended when experiencing typical cold symptoms or minor injuries. The Clinic will refer students directly to the Trinity Medical Center if the illness or injury is more serious. For an emergency, use the Emergency Room at the West Campus of Trinity Medical Center or call an ambulance. Campus Security are trained in CPR and first aid and will respond to emergencies.
