NOTE: If a patient is seen at University Health Service for a reason that is outside of the scope of our practice, we will transfer the patient to a UK Emergency Department for continued care. UHS does not have an infirmary; therefore, if continued treatment is required after hours the patient will be transferred to a UK Emergency Department for further care.
