POLICIES & CONFIDENTIALITY

Counseling & Psychological Services (CAPS) documents are聽separate from a student鈥檚 academic/educational records.聽ONLY聽CAPS staff has access to them. CAPS will maintain and retain such records in a confidential manner, except in specific situations where disclosure of information is ethically or legally required聽(see Services, Policies, & Confidentiality below for additional information).聽The CAPS Office will retain a student鈥檚 record(s) in accordance with聽legal聽and聽ethical standards.聽Aside from the typical limits of confidentiality, a student鈥檚 clinical records can only be disclosed if an 鈥淎uthorization to Release Information鈥� form (available at the CAPS Office) is completed by the student.聽

Students who have scheduled an initial appointment will be asked to complete intake paperwork through Therapy Notes. Students are asked to log into Therapy Notes and complete the aforementioned paperwork before their first appointment. Students who do not complete the required paperwork in the above timeframe may be notified that their appointment has been rescheduled. If the paperwork remains incomplete prior to the rescheduled appointment, the student鈥檚 appointment may be canceled.聽
