Espace Santé

Primary Care Consultations

• For any general health concern, whether physical or psychological, our team is here to listen. We offer a personalised assessment and solutions tailored to your situation and needs.

Psychological Assessment

• If you’re going through a stressful period, suffering from anxiety disorders, or have questions about your mental health, our nurses are here for you. With or without an appointment, they offer individual consultations and support for your psychological needs.

Referral within the Geneva Health Network

• For more specific follow-ups, access to specialised therapists, or in-depth evaluations, we facilitate your connection with specialists in the Geneva health network for targeted medical care.

Prevention and Advice

• The Espace Santé is committed to providing you with essential information and advice for your well-being. Our mission is to support you throughout your academic journey with prevention and personalised recommendations.

If you need to see a general practitioner, two dedicated services are available to students at HUG. These services can provide medical prescriptions, referrals (physiotherapy, occupational therapy, dietetics, psychotherapy, etc.), orders for medical tests (blood work, urine tests, imaging, etc.), or medical certificates.

Consultations take place remotely via smartphone, tablet, or computer. A stable internet connection is essential.

The Espace Santé HES-SO Genève is free, but depending on your needs, the nursing team may refer you to the Geneva health network, including doctors, psychiatrists, psychologists, etc. To help finance these external consultations, HES-SO Genève offers specific health access support, in partnership with the University of Geneva, under certain conditions. This financial support also applies to consultation fees with Télémaque and to those prescribed by Télémaque.

Check the eligibility criteria, submission deadlines, and the list of required documents before submitting your application via the University of Geneva’s online form.

Detailed information on the financial aid available to you is also available on the dedicated Student Affairs web pages.
