MPS is excited to partner with OSU Medicine to bring School-Based Virtual Health
McAlester Public Schools is excited to partner with OSU Medicine to bring School-Based Virtual Health Care to our students.
 
Through this partnership, students can receive FREE medical care right at school—without missing valuable class time. Whether it's a quick consultation for a minor illness or injury, or behavioral health therapy students can be treated virtually by a medical professional, while parents can participate from work or home, making it easier than ever to manage health needs.
 
This partnership is part of OSU Medicine's efforts to increase access to healthcare in rural Oklahoma, ensuring our students stay healthy, engaged, and ready to learn.
 
How it works:
Students get virtual health care visits at school.
Parents can join virtually from home or work, making it easier to stay connected.
It’s all about making healthcare convenient, accessible, and efficient for families.
