Dare County Schools, in partnership with Dare County Department of Health & Human Services (DHHS) and Surf Pediatrics and Medicine, is launching a School-Based Urgent Care Telehealth Program for students in grades 6–12.

This pilot program provides eligible students with convenient access to urgent medical care for common illnesses and minor health concerns while remaining at school whenever possible. With assistance from the school nurse, students can connect with a licensed healthcare provider through a secure virtual visit conducted in a private location at school.
