The University Health Service Center (led by Director Hyesook Park) has relocated to the first floor of the Student Union Building and undergone a complete renovation. With this relocation and renewal, the University Health Service Center is now able to provide health management services with improved accessibility in a more comfortable environment.
The relocation has enhanced efficiency by consolidating all services into a single space. In particular, moving from the basement to the ground floor has created a brighter and more comfortable environment. Additionally, the center’s new location in Room 110-2 (formerly the computer lab) on the first floor of the Student Union Building, next to Shinhan Bank, has significantly improved accessibility and ease of use for students, faculty, and staff.
Director Park stated, “With the improved accessibility of the University Health Service Center, we expect more members of the Ewha community will begin to use our services. We hope this will provide tangible benefits in health promotion and preventive care.” She added, “Going forward, the center will continue to offer various programs and support to provide even better health management services.”
The University Health Service Center was established in April 1956 with the aim to improve the health of the Ewha community through health management, medical care, and health education. For 69 years, it has faithfully served as a guardian of the health of the Ewha family. Currently, the center is equipped to provide health and medical services with a clinic, examination room, pharmacy, health care room, and health education room. It also offers primary care, consultations, a rest area, and various vaccinations—including those for hepatitis, cervical cancer, shingles, and influenza—along with general and student health checkups. In addition, with the recent support of Ewha Womans University Medical Center (EUMC), the University Health Service Center has introduced new blood pressure monitors and body measurement devices while replacing and upgrading its outdated body composition analyzers, thereby further enhancing the quality of its medical services.
The University Health Service Center operates on weekdays from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and students, faculty, and staff are required to present their student ID or staff ID to use the services. Students enrolled in the Student Health Insurance Program, which is Ewha’s student healthcare service, can access basic medical services such as medical consultations, medication administration, treatments, counseling, and travel clinics with full coverage. Additional services, including diagnostic tests for disease, vaccinations, and the issuance of medical certificates, are available with partial coverage. Appointments for various services can be made online at http://ehealth.ewha.ac.kr/.
