StudentLinc overview
Today's college students experience higher levels of depression, anxiety and stress than any prior generation, leaving mental health counseling centers on university or college campuses stretched for resources. This surge in the number of students who are experiencing severe mental health issues implies that university mental health services will become even more strained in the future.
StudentLinc, a CuraLinc Healthcare program, helps colleges, universities and other post-secondary schools support student health initiatives and reduce student attrition by providing confidential and professional counseling for behavioral health concerns that may affect students personally or impact their performance at school, including:
Alcohol-related concerns
Transition and/or adjustment issues
Stress related to coursework and career planning
Abuse of prescription and recreational drugs
Cultural diversity issues
Eating disorders and/or body image concerns
Suicidal or homicidal ideations
The majority of these issues can be addressed within StudentLinc without having to refer the student to a higher level of treatment, though obvious exceptions occur when the problem is life-threatening and requires immediate medical attention.
Integration
StudentLinc can be integrated to function effectively within a student health management strategy. The program will coordinate referrals and exchange data with disease management, nurse line, telemedicine or a student health center.
Plan design options
CuraLinc offers two plan design options for the StudentLinc program:
Core The Core plan design option provides clients and their students with around-the-clock access to licensed mental health counselors that are focused on delivering in-the-moment support, guidance and advocacy.
