Adult Mental Health Programs & Services

Joseph Brant Hospital's Community Mental Health services provide a continuum of care from assessment or consultation, to specialized treatment supports for clients with complex and serious mental health disorders.

Please see below for a list of our programs and services.

 

General Psychiatrist Consultation Clinic 

The Psychiatrist Consultation Service provides assessment, medication review, and treatment recommendations via a "shared care" model with family physicians. 

 

 

Short-Term Treatment

Short-Term Treatment meets the needs of individuals who are experiencing mental health issues such as mood or anxiety disorders. 

Services include:

  • Assessment
  • Psychiatric evaluation
  • Treatment planning
  • Skill development
  • Coordination of community resources.

Clinicians also offer treatment via several groups, e.g. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) for clients with depression or anxiety.

 

 

Intensive Case Management

Intensive Case Management Services offers comprehensive outreach services to adult clients and their families. 

This program addresses the multiple needs of clients with predominantly psychotic or severe mood disorders (e.g. bipolar) and focuses on the client's goals and effective community reintegration.  

 

 

Medication Clinic

The Medication Clinic facilitates the optimal use of psychotropic medications to ensure client stability in the community and supports clients in maintaining adequate functioning and an enhanced quality of life.

 

Referrals

Referrals are accepted from physicians, hospitals, community agencies, and mental health and addiction professionals. There is an intake review to determine eligibility for all treatment services.
