After-Hours & Emergency Care for Students

If you are experiencing a life-threatening medical or mental health emergency, please call 9-1-1.

During CSU Health Network hours of operation, contact us at (970) 491-7121 for assistance. When CSU Health Network is closed (after-hours, weekends, holidays), seek support via telephone assistance or visit a local urgent care/convenient care/walk-in care clinic or emergency room.

Note: Urgent care/convenient care/walk-in care and emergency care will require payment and/or insurance coverage. The emergency room is more expensive than urgent care, and some insurance companies will only pay for emergency services if urgent care isn’t available. You are responsible for any charges incurred at the hospital or urgent care/convenient care/walk-in care not covered by your insurance plan.
