Referral process: The team does our very best to meet with students as needed however, there are often times we are all occupied with other students. They try to be very flexible in seeing students as they may have some social anxiety however, we are mindful of students who use the Care Center as a way to avoid going to class as well. If it is not a 911 emergency, typically it would be best to give their office a heads up if a student needs to be seen and give the student a pass
For Julie Fahlmann:
Teachers/staff can email, call or come to my office with concerns
Students can walk in or come with a faculty member
There are 5 lunch passes we expect students to use if they want to have lunch in the Care Center
For Lisa Hogan:
Preferably by appointment (email, stop by to make an appointment, have a teacher email, etc...)
"Walk-ins" are fine but availability is hit & miss.
Students/ families are welcome to call me as well ext. 4235
