Mental Health
The Social Worker offers counselling and treatment for mental health issues. This includes: individual counselling/treatment; self-management of symptoms; a treatment plan and goals in partnership with patients.
Our goal is to provide timely access to services that will help improve the mental health status of patients.
​
The team will also help refer and connect patients to community agencies and other service providers in the community who provide mental health, addiction and psychiatric services.
​
The team also provides psychiatric appointments through Ontario Telemedicine Network, to help avoid long wait times while providing care in the patient's community.
