Iberville Elementary now has a school-based health center offering medical and behavioral health services. Please welcome Jael Kitts our new Licensed Practical Nurse.
Access Health Louisiana (AHL) has a school-based health center offering primary care and behavioral health services at Iberville Elementary. The school-based health center is located inside the preschool building down the hall from the front office and school nurse. Medical services are offered in-person by Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) Jael Kitts and virtually with Nurse Practitioner Courtney Breaud. Students may be seen for acute and diagnostic care, well child visits, sports physicals, immunizations, and more. The school-based health center does not replace your child’s pediatrician. The clinic offers continuity of care for your child during the school day. On your consent form, you will be asked to list contact information for your child’s pediatrician, therapist, psychiatrist, and/or dentist so that our school-based staff can keep them informed of any follow-up your child may need.
Our Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) sees students on campus for behavioral health services. She offers individual and group therapy counseling sessions for stress and anger management, trauma, depression, anxiety, bullying, or even relationships. Parents can request that their child be seen for services by either calling the front office of Iberville Elementary at (225) 687-2217 or leaving a message with the Plaquemine High Health Center at (225) 369-2510.
AHL operates school-based health services (SBHC) at four locations in Iberville Parish. Those locations include the Plaquemine High Health Center, MSA-West Academy, Iberville Alternative Positive Program for Students (IAPPS), White Castle High, Dorseyville Elementary, and Iberville Elementary. Iberville Elementary’s school-based services opened in fall of 2018. All students must have a current consent and enrollment form on file at the health center in order to be seen by medical staff. 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. Forms may also be found on the right-hand side of this webpage.
Co-payments are waived for all students and faculty/staff 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. Any medications prescribed for your child may be filled through the Access Health Louisiana Pharmacy and delivered to your home. We also work with nearby Walgreens and CVS pharmacies and can have most prescriptions filled at a discounted rate.
If you have an emergency outside of school hours, please call 9-1-1.
