The cases, which have satisfactorily been reviewed with the students' families, have led to doubts about whether the office is adequately equipped to handle emergency situation. “ No one admitted wrong doing," said Fr. O’Shaughnessy, the Vice President of PC, about the cases, however, “ A lot of people admitted wrong information.” The infirmary is “an impeded operation because we don’t have the room and we’re trying to do something about that,” Fr. O’Shaughnessy continued. The Office of Student Health is often criticized because of a misunderstanding; many expect it to be an emergency room, something it is not, nor does it expect to resume such a role. Dr. Testa, the Director of Student Health at PC, stressed that the facility is not a place w here sutures are given o r severe cases are handled, it is, however, ideally suited to handle pa­ tients with fevers, earaches, bronchitis and similar ailments. The office staffs an intramural trainer in the afternoons to handle sprained ankles and other sports related injuries, and one of three physicians sees patients Monday through Fridays from 12:30 to 2 pm. The facility is staffed by resident nurses 24 hours a day, seven days a week who have had experiences in a hospital. In the event of an emergency, the nurse on duty is expected to decide whether hospitalization is necessary and if so, if an ambulance is needed. The nurse can make the deci­ sion herself or contact one of the doctors on call for assistance. “ We always have a car available,” Dr. Testa stated when asked how a student without a car could get to an emergency room. He also stressed that employee was always on call to drive a student to the hospital, and that the students have a right to leave the infirmary to seek help elsewhere if they so Pope John Paul vs. Ann Landers desire. This, in a nutshell, is how the infirmary is staffed and how on Solitary Sex it reacts in emergency situations.
