Welcome to the Student Health & Counseling Centers

The Student Health & Counseling Centers are located at both the Lakewood and the Arvada Campuses. The Student Health & Counseling Centers are medical centers staffed by certified and licensed medical providers. We provide nearly all general medical care that would be similar to visiting a Family Practice Clinic. 

Center History:

In 2011-12, the RRCC Student Government pursued and succeeded in getting the majority study body vote to support the construction and implementation of a Student Health & Counseling Center. The Lakewood campus center opened in September 2012 and continues to serve the needs of all RRCC students. Then, as RRCC administrators pursued a large addition to the Arvada campus in 2015 that would have a focus on Health and Sciences.

How it works:
 

For Students

The Student Health & Counseling Centers are supported by fees. All RRCC students have access to the services at the center. If you have not automatically paid the center fee, you have the ability to "opt in" by paying the fee at the cashiers department. 

Visits with the medical providers on campus are free of charge (no co-pay) for students. You do not need health insurance to be seen in the Student Health & Counseling Center.

The center charges minimal fees for various services to cover the cost of materials (ex: stitches, wart removal, vaccinations, etc.)

For Employees

The Student Health & Counseling Center is now offering medical services to all RRCC staff, faculty, and employees for a co-pay of $30 per visit. All medical services and pricing for procedures will remain the same for staff members. Please bring a valid employee ID to your visit. We take credit cards and cash at the center. This center does not process health insurance.  

Medical Services: 

Behavioral Health Services: 

  • Behavioral health counseling is available for students only. Employees may visit Human Resources for employee options for behavioral health counseling resources.
  • Brief counseling to help with stress, depression, and other life challenges is provided by a licensed therapist from Jefferson Center for Mental Health. 
  • Visit www.rrcc.edu/behavioral-health-services for additional information.

Scheduling:

  • To schedule an appointment (for Lakewood and Arvada students), please call 303-914-6070. We see students by appointment only at this time. If we do not answer, please leave a message and we will return your call.

Urgent and Emergent Situations:

We will triage urgent patients within our scope of medical practice. Patients may be transferred to the nearest emergency department or urgent care as determined by the provider.
