At University Health and Wellbeing (UHW), the health and wellbeing of our campus community is our top priority.
As part of a university-wide budget realignment, UHW and MSU Health Care have partnered to ensure the continuity of critical health services.
The Executive Director of Mental Health and Trauma Support Services, Leigh Norwood, is no longer with the university. It is university policy not to comment on personnel matters.
Physical Therapy Services
As of July 31, 2025, Physical Therapy (PT) services provided to students, faculty, and staff by UHW Campus Health Services will transition to MSU Health Care Physical & Occupational Therapy, located on MSU’s campus off Hagadorn Road.
New patients in need of physical therapy will be referred to MSU Health Care.
Current patients will end their course of treatment or transition to MSU Health Care within 60 days.
This transition reflects our shared commitment to providing Spartans with access to the highest standard of care through MSU Health Care’s integrated, faculty-led clinical network. We do not anticipate any disruption to the care that is relied upon.
Psychiatric Services
Counseling and Psychiatric Services (CAPS) provides mental health support through both counseling and psychiatric care.
A similar plan to transition psychiatric services currently provided to students by CAPS to MSU Health Care Psychiatry Clinic, located on MSU's campus at Fee Hall, was scheduled to occur within 90 days. Under the plan, students would have continued to have timely access to high-quality mental health care and three subsidized visits during their time as MSU. Counseling services would have remained with CAPS at MSU, along with continued access to the 24/7 crisis line, UWill telehealth, and peer support via Togetherall.
As of August 7, plans to transition psychiatric services has been paused to allow for input from new MSU leadership.
What students need to know:
Students seeking mental health support, including psychiatric care, should continue to contact CAPS.
Students utilizing psychiatric services will continue to receive three subsidized visits during their time at MSU.
The 24/7 crisis line remains available.
Support for the Care and Intervention Team (CAIT) will continue.
