Wellness Counseling Center

You have a right to have your dignity as an individual recognized and respected, regardless of your race, age, sex, or lifestyle. You should expect that all clinicians will introduce themselves and address you according to your preference.

You have a right to privacy. You should expect that your discussion, examination, and treatment will be conducted in private. You should expect that the presence of any individual will be explained to you and that person will be introduced by name.

You have a right to confidentiality of all communications and records relating to you according to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). Your permission must be obtained before we may give information to anyone not directly connected with your care or educational interests — which applies to your parents and college officials. Exceptions required by law include reporting certain communicable diseases, threats of suicide or homicide, or suspected child abuse.

You have the right to review your medical record and have a copy if you so desire. Your health records can also be accessed via your secure student patient portal.

You will be expected to be an active participant in decisions regarding your health.

You have a right to know and understand:

• Our assessment of your problem
• What tests are being done and why
• The risks of any tests or treatment
• Alternatives, if any, and their risks
• The prospects for resolution of your problem
• The charges, if any, for your care

You have a right to expect pleasant and courteous service.

As a consumer of student health services, you have responsibilities as well as rights. They include the following:

• Prescriptive medications, injections, and laboratory tests will have a financial charge. Charges will be added to your school account. The cost is kept as low as possible. It is your responsibility to discuss any financial burden this might pose.
• Being a good health consumer does not mean being a silent partner. If you feel your rights have not been respected, ask to see the clinical care director or associate dean of Student Success & Wellness.
• Your health is a shared responsibility.
• Be honest and direct in a courteous fashion about everything that relates to your needs for health services.
• Be sure you understand your health situation. If you do not understand the treatment plan or test, ask the practitioner about it.
• Follow the prescribed plan. It is your responsibility to advise us if you cannot follow it.
