FLORENCE, AL - University Health Services, along with Student Counseling Services and Case Management, 与Fast Pace Health合作,为所有K8彩乐园的学生提供便捷的心理健康服务.

"It's a collaborative effort to bridge a gap and provide additional mental health access for our students. The partnership enhances our existing behavioral health system, making mental health treatment more accessible," said Carmen Richter, Director of Student Counseling Services at UNA. "For instance, when we see issues that may benefit a student's mental health through a psychiatric evaluation, Fast Pace can provide that and monitor the student's medications."

The partnership became effective at the beginning of the fall semester, UNA是阿拉巴马州第一所与Fast Pace Health合作提供这些服务的四年制大学.

Through Fast Pace Health, behavioral health appointments take place via telepsych consultation using a smartphone or tablet. Students can have these appointments in a private examination room in University Health Services. UNA学生将在初步评估后由学生咨询服务中心或由我们的大学案例经理转介到这些服务.
