School Based Health Center
Riverdale School Based Health Center is one of 11 school-based health centers Jefferson
Parish School District operates. A school-based health center is a comprehensive healthcare
clinic that is housed within a school and provides students with medical and mental health
services. A key benefit of the SBHC is that it keeps students in school and parents at work and
reduces emergency room visits.
Consented students of the SBHC can receive services from a licensed physician, nurse
practitioner, licensed clinical social worker, or psychiatrist who can diagnose and treat
physical or mental illness early and cost effectively.
In order for a student to receive services, a written or electronic consent must be fully
completed by a parent/guardian.
There are no out-of-pocket costs for any student, insured or uninsured. Co-payments are
waived for all students enrolled at our SBHC. Commercial insurances including Medicaid and
Medicare are accepted. Students who are uninsured can also receive care with a consent and
enrollment form on file with the health center. Services are given to all students at NO COST.
All students must have a current consent and enrollment form on file to be seen at the
Riverdale School Based Health Center. Consent and enrollment forms are sent home at the
beginning of the year; however, parents may sign their child up for services at any time during
the school year. Electronic consent forms may also be found on the right-hand side of this
webpage through a QR code or links. Paper consent forms can also be found and printed on
the right-hand side of this webpage.
If you have an emergency outside of school hours, please call 9-1-1.
