Family Centred Collaborative Care Model with family doctors and psychiatrists,
Event date: -
Event type: Single day (a day or less)
Dr. Nick Kates of McMaster University will describe a family centred Collaborative Care Model with Family Doctors and Psychiatrists. Many families support a family member who is on a wait list for a psychiatrist. And often the many physical problems that people with mental illness experience are not addressed. So perhaps this model could address these issues. Ways to include the authentic family and client voice in planning and implementation will be discussed. Dr. Steven Youssoufian Chief and Medical Director, Mental Health, Mackenzie Health Richmond Hill, and Dr. Javed Alloo who is a family doctor and who he is currently on the advisory council for Ontario’s Medical Psychiatry Alliance plan to attend. There will be a question and answer session following the lecture. Door open at 6:30 pm. Lecture begins at 7pm. Admission free. Donations welcome. Refreshments served. There will be a small art sale and raffle to purchase more art supplies. Families, clients and professionals welcome. For information please contact info@home-on-the-hill.ca
