Emergency Information

Health

The University Health Service (UHS) provides primary health and dental care for all CUHK undergraduates. Walk-in appointments are available, but prior appointments are encouraged.

If you are ill during UHS office hours (8:45am-1pm and 2pm-5:30pm, M-F), and are able to walk, the UHS Centre is a quick walk from Morningside. Take the lift in the Pentecostal Mission Hall Complex Low Block to 4/F, exit the building, cross the footbridge, ascend the stairs and turn right, crossing through the parking lot to Clinic Road. The University Health Centre is down the road on your right.
