In an effort to ensure that all of our students have timely, affordable access to mental and physical healthcare, we are launching a new health services program called Hazel Health.

With parent or guardian permission, students can speak with a Hazel mental health professional or have an on-demand virtual medical visit at home starting today. These services will be available for students at school in late February.

Mental health services include:

• Scheduled short-term therapy visits: No waitlist for scheduled therapy sessions for coping with everything from anxiety, depression, and grief to peer and family relationships and bullying
• Care management to local resources: Referrals to local providers for continuity of care
• Coordination: Communication with families, local health providers, and school staff

On-demand physical health services include:

• Medical treatment: For stomach aches, headaches, sprained ankles, asthma concerns, and everything in between
• Medication: Hazel providers can send prescriptions to your pharmacy
• Coordination: With family physician and return to school communications

Please note, Hazel Health cannot complete sports or annual physicals and cannot administer vaccinations.

We invite you to learn more at https://my.hazel.co/bremertonschools/info.

Teletherapy will still be available for students from Gaggle Teletherapy and Peninsula Community Health Services will continue providing behavioral and medical health services at their clinics at Bremerton High School and Mountain View Middle School. Hazel Health is intended to provide another resource to address health care issues.
