New partnership will improve student health and overall wellbeing
January 12, 2023 – Ephraim, UT – Snow College has partnered with TimelyMD, the leading virtual health and wellbeing solution in higher education, to offer students free and equitable access to mental health and basic needs support through the TimelyCare platform. TimelyCare serves as a 24/7 virtual extension of campus counseling center resources, with a goal of improving student wellbeing, engagement, and retention.
Through TimelyCare on their phone or other device, Snow College students can now select from a wide-ranging menu of virtual care options from licensed counselors in all 50 states—at no cost and without the hassle of traditional insurance—including:
TimelyCare also provides a library of digital self-care content and a peer support community to help student be well and thrive, whenever and wherever they may be. Additionally, faculty and staff have access to support that empowers them to guide students to TimelyCare resources to help students achieve a sense of wellbeing, live healthier lifestyles, and improve their mental health.
The need for 24/7 access to high-quality care has never been more important. According to the American Council on Education, student mental health is the top concern of college and university presidents. It’s also the number one reason students leave college. A recent report by Gallup and the Lumina Foundation found that three out of four students in bachelor’s degree programs who considered stopping cited emotional stress as their reason.
Mike Daniels, Snow College Dean of Students, commented that, “There is no greater priority than the health and safety of our students. TimelyCare’s ease of use, convenience, and immediacy make it easier than ever for our students to get on-demand support.”
