Mental Health Supports for Health Care Workers

Throughout the pandemic, the Ministry of Health and Ontario Health have partnered with five hospitals to provide mental health services to frontline health care workers. CAMH and their partner hospitals are currently providing access to mental health and addiction supports for these workers dealing with the stressors of COVID-19. CAMH is now expanding these supports to help health care workers maintain their mental health and wellness while coping with a wide array of stressors, including the pandemic OR other crises. These services include access to resources, Cognitive Behavioural Therapies (CBT/Psychotherapy) as well as Psychiatric Services.

Individuals who meet the following criteria are now eligible to self-refer for psychotherapy and psychiatric services:

You are a health care worker in Ontario; and
You require mental health and/or addictions support.

As noted above, in addition to CAMH, the following hospitals continue to offer self-referral services for those requiring mental health supports: Ontario Shores Centre for Mental Health Sciences; St. Joseph’s Healthcare Hamilton; The Royal Mental Health Centre, and Waypoint Centre for Mental Health Care. This is to ensure that individuals can receive timely access to care.

If you are a health care worker in need of support, please use this form to self-refer. Once we receive your referral, CAMH will contact you to schedule your first appointment (likely conducted through telephone or telemedicine). Your request may be directed to one of the partner institutions. If you have concerns or questions about this, please contact Access CAMH at 416-535-8501 ext. 2.
