Course Objectives:
Just as physical first aid helps an individual with a physical injury prior to being provided with expert care, Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is the support provided to a person who may be experiencing a decline in their mental well-being or a mental health crisis, until the person can access professional and other supports.

What is it?
IN-ROADS (International Network for Research Outcomes in Adolescent Depression) is a research project that looks into which outcomes (things that changed with treatment, like a person's energy levels or mood) matter most when treating youth depression. This project includes youth, family members, doctors and therapists. Researchers tend to measure outcomes that they think are important, meaning different researchers measure different outcomes; this can make it difficult to compare findings from different studies to find out which treatments work the best!

The Revised Children’s Anxiety and Depression Scale (RCADS) assesses for both anxiety and depression in children and youth 8-18 years old. It’s currently free, validated, and recommended by an international group of experts. Learn more about the RCADS in our Quick Guide, which outlines how the questionnaire is administered and scored. The Quick Guide also proposes a way of using RCADS scores to calculate indicators of change, such as response, remission, recovery, relapse, and recurrence.

Video #1: "Monitoring Mental Health: Using measurement tools to inform care for youth" (2:56).
The gentle art of noticing your thoughts and feelings without judging yourself or others is one way to describe Mindfulness.
Practicing mindfulness meditation is a simple and accessible way to disconnect from unhelpful patterns, allowing you to embrace the present moment and the possibility of dealing with anxiety, sadness and stress more productively.

Our Goal:
A recent study in London, Ontario reported methamphetamine use in hospitals posed a greater risk of infection compared to use in the community. Harm reduction strategies are not currently implemented in hospital settings in Canada as safe consumption requires an exemption under Section 56.1 of the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act from Health Canada.
