Addressing the Crisis in Campus Counseling Centers: An Organizational Perspective
Journal Title: Journal of Quality in Health Care & Economics (JQHE) - Year 2019, Vol 2, Issue 5
Abstract
The challenges for those responsible for the mental health of students on the campus are multi-faceted and complex. These medical challenges are exacerbated by the administrative realities that there is no consistent process for seeking a standard of mental health care on college campuses. This is not about the professionalism of those in counseling centers. This preliminary study examines the organizational processes and practices that are used to help students. Two topics stand out from this analysis. First is that the needs of the student/client are too complex for the simplistic self-reporting entry systems. Second is that the current models fail to capture critical and crisis needs and may not even be effective at providing timely assistance for the least complex and most straight-forward, much less the more critical problems.
