Typical urgent care situations can include, but are not limited to the following:
- Acute symptoms of depression, anxiety, panic, trauma, suicidal ideation

What to Expect
Frequent need for urgent care counseling often indicates the need for a higher level of care beyond the scope of practice at the UCC. In these situations, the UCC and/or Student Care Coordination will connect the student with additional resources.
