Griffin Clinic Information

Spartanburg Day School's Griffin Clinic is a convenient healthcare option exclusively for members of the school community. 

The Griffin Clinic offers expanded health and wellness services, beyond the scope of the school nurse's office. Griffin Clinic participants receive on-campus care from a registered nurse practitioner with the ability to test for and diagnose common illnesses and write prescriptions for treatment. SDS students who use the clinic will be billed directly through their family's FACTS account a $40 Clinic office visit .

In the Griffin Clinic students can be treated during the school day without needing to leave campus. Established as an extension of a primary care provider, not a replacement, Clinic services include but are not limited to diagnosis and treatment for ear infections, flu, skin rashes, upper respiratory infections and sore throat. The Clinic is open during school hours or as needed to serve the community’s needs. Additionally, Telehealth services – remote visits via a mobile device or computer – are offered to prevent the spread of infection in the school setting while still providing access to high-quality care. 

Students will continue to receive access to care from the SDS nurse's office for basic medical needs like over-the-counter medications, bandaids, ice packs, scheduled medication administrations and emergency care, then referred to their primary care provider for further treatment.  

Contact School Nurse Jonathan Green at jonathan.green@sdsgriffin.org with any questions.
