<p>I believe the quality of care at these infirmaries may vary considerably. At the infirmary where I went in the 70s, they basically just gave me a bed to be miserable on. I can’t remember getting any care–probably they took my temperature but not a whole lot more & let me stay there until I could stand and be semi-coherent and leave on my own power. The food poisoning was a short-lived incident & I left about 24 hours later while the mono meant I got an incomplete for one class & left to pack & go to the airport for winter break.</p>
<p>The care my kids would get by going to the med school clinic (tho it involves a free shuttle) I expect would be significantly greater than the care I received.</p>
<p>I never asked the schools my kids were considering about the state of their infirmaries but assumed they were pretty rudimentary (like summer camp–that was what was available to me back in the day).</p>
