Each year in May, the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) marks Mental Health Week - a week dedicated to reducing stigma, focusing on the importance of mental health, and highlighting local services, programs and supports that encourage, promote and protect mental health.
This year’s theme for Mental Health Week is #CompassionConnects. It’s a call to be kind to those living with mental health and substance use concerns and to ourselves.
Here at St. Joe’s, #CompassionConnects with our mission: Compassionate Care, Faith, Discovery and our commitment to providing exceptional care delivered with dignity and respect.
All week long, we’ll be sharing stories about the programs and services we’re proud to offer our community, the people who provide that care, and the clients who honestly and courageously share their lived experiences with mental health and substance use, too. To learn more about the size, scope and excellence of our Mental Health & Addictions Program at St. Joe’s, I invite you to watch this short video.
From providing emergency mental health and addictions care for those in crisis to offering outpatient and community outreach services as well as inpatient care for those most in need, St. Joe’s offers a full care continuum of mental health and addictions care for transition age youth, adults, and older adults. We work with partners, like primary care and CMHA, to integrate care and meet the needs of patients. Our goal is to make sure that no matter what mental health or addiction concern someone may be struggling with, they can find the help they need right here, close to home.
