The Ultimate College Student Health Handbook with Jill Grimes M.D.

Are you worried about sending your child to college during a pandemic? Dr. Grimes tells us what she puts into her College Student “Care Package” including new additions for life during a pandemic.

Listen as we discuss the best ways to protect your child and you from traveling and college life.

We also discuss going back to school for kids in general and rules for staying safe and healthy.

In the second half of the segment, Dr. Grimes talks about what threat to college students’ wellness keeps her up at night.

What is the best advice that parents can give their child before going off to college for the first time? College will likely be the best years of your life so far...BUT there will still be bad DAYS and even weeks thrown in the mix. Many students have such high expectations that when the first disappointments hit (especially not making the club/Greek org they wanted, their first bad grade, not liking their roommate) it feels twice as devastating. Also, at first, join everything! Don’t wait for the “perfect” group. This is your chance to explore everything from political to service to quirky art clubs, and a wonderful time to meet people with totally different backgrounds and perspectives. As you settle in, you will quickly figure out which ones you enjoy and which ones you should drop. -Jill Grimes, MD Family Physician, Speaker, Author & Educator
