The Woodridge Sanatorium is a well-equipped clinic manned by two experienced and qualified nursing sisters. It is situated opposite the Preparatory School offices.
Because young people sometimes try to avoid classes by visiting the Sanatorium, we have a strict policy regarding consulting hours. Pupils may consult the sister on duty as follows:
Monday – Friday
Saturday
Sunday
Pupils admitted to the Sanatorium are not allowed visitors (this includes chatting to friends at the windows). When pupils are in the Sanatorium for a long time, visiting is at the sister’s discretion and is limited to non-infectious patients only.
When visiting the Sanatorium, the nurses must be notified of ALL medication the pupil is using, as some drugs interact negatively with each other. All medicines are to be kept by the Sanatorium, or with the House Parent if the Sanatorium staff approve.
Pupils admitted to the SAN may not have any access to mobile phones/ computers/ ipods etc. from 08:00 – 16:00.
