Health care at Háteigsskóli
Healthcare for schoolchildren is part of general healthcare and a continuation of infant and toddler care. The goal is to improve students' health and well-being. School healthcare staff work closely with parents, school administrators, teachers and others involved in student affairs, focusing on their welfare. All information is treated confidentially. School healthcare services are recorded in the primary healthcare's electronic medical records.
Education and prevention
School healthcare provides organized health education and promotes healthy lifestyles. Every opportunity is used to educate students and make them aware of and responsible for their own health. Parents can seek advice from school health services regarding their children's mental, physical and social health.
