Andressa Bavaresco is responsible for student health and wellness services. She helps students with the kinds of personal, social, and cultural concerns that can arise during their time in Italy. She keeps the 24/7 student emergency phone on an occasional rotating basis.

One of the best things about studying abroad is the opportunity to fully immerse yourself in the local life and culture of the host country, but these objectives cannot be reached if you are not physically well and safe. Syracuse University Florence takes students’ physical and mental health needs and safety concerns seriously and my job  is to make sure that students have access to the best possible health professionals in the Florence area and to encourage all students to engage in safe social behavior.
