UNC
HealthLink is a free service of the UNC Charlotte Counseling Center
and Student Health Center. Part of the UNC Health Care system,
HealthLink nurses can discuss your immediate needs, how to manage
your current problem, and how to follow-up to get the assistance you
need.
For other non-emergency crises after hours, you may also contact appropriate
residence hall personnel (if you are an on campus student) or the Campus Police (704-687-2200).
In either case, they
will discuss with you the options you have for getting assistance,
which may include getting in touch with the counselor on-call or a
referral to another resource in the community.
