UCLA believes that students’ well-being and safety are paramount to academic success. We share the responsibility of responding when a student’s health or safety is at risk by reporting these concerns to the appropriate offices and referring students to campus resources. UCLA’s Consultation & Response Team (CRT) is a group of professional staff members charged with responding to reports of students who may be in distress. This team is comprised of representatives from key campus departments, such as The College, Dean of Students, Counseling and Psychological Services Residential Life, and the UCLA Police Department.
For more information and resources for a student in crisis, please visit https://www.studentincrisis.ucla.edu/.
At the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA we promote an environment of responsible safety.
If you have an unexpected or emergency situation arise please use your best judgment in your decision to interact with other students and patients.
In the case of an unexpected or emergency absence, please contact the Student Affairs Office at 310-206-0434 or the DGSOM Student Affairs Emergency Line 310-825-6281.
