Health Services
JAARS Health Services is available for your use during your stay. The clinic offers immunizations, lab work, and medical consults in preparation for going overseas, which you can schedule before or after ICC. They have very limited hours.
Clinic appointments (except for emergencies) should be scheduled before or after the month-long training.
Appointments for lab work, immunizations, or other non-emergency medical consultations may not interfere with any part of the ICC schedule. For these services, plan to arrive before ICC or stay after, as you will not be excused from class for these items and will have to reschedule the appointment.
Contact the JAARS Clinic at 704.843.6222 or clinic.jaars@jaars.org to make arrangements ahead of time.
