Student Handbook
Post-Hospitalization Return
When a residential student is hospitalized, they must consult with university staff before returning to the residential facilities. JBU seeks to fulfill a duty to care for students; thus, a student hospitalized for medical treatment should meet with the University Nurse, and a student hospitalized for mental health treatment should meet with the director of the Student Counseling Center before returning to JBU student housing or attending classes. For JBU to support students in healthy holistic decisions, students should provide documentation of ongoing treatment plans. Multiple hospitalizations for related symptoms may necessitate considering alternative educational options (i.e., off-campus housing, academic programs, etc.).
