As faculty and staff you may have students reveal emotional upset associated with very diverse concerns from relationship problems, to anxiety disorders, to suicidal thinking. At that time you are in the position to become a referral person. The following may be useful as you make a referral of a student to counseling.
Is this a life threatening situation? Was there a verbal or written threat or an attempt to hurt themselves or someone else?
IF YES -- Proceed with the "Guide to Making Counseling Referrals" while you remain with the student or delegate a responsible staff person to remain with the student while you make your crisis calls.
IF NO -- Proceed with the "Guide to Making Counseling Referrals"
If you would like a printed copy of the "Guide to Making a Counseling Referrals," please contact the Counseling Center at ext. 3122 and a copy will be sent to you.
