CE to Go: GoalsCE to Go: Goals• Improve access to professional development
by mental health practitioners in underserviced settings
• Facilitate dissemination of evidence supported clinical practices for clients with mental illness through the provision of expertise and evidence supported teaching with standardized materials
• Foster collaboration between psychiatric outreach consultants & community mental health services through a coordinated knowledge transfer program
Desired OutcomesDesired Outcomes
(i) Indirectly improve mental health of patients in under-serviced communities, by
(ii) improving the knowledge and skills of front line mental health workers in areas identified through learning surveys, key informant interviews and consultation requests, via
(iii) application of teaching, with
(iv) comprehensive mixed evaluative methods
Psychiatric services in Northern Ontario
Psychiatric services in Northern Ontario
• Average ratio of psychiatrists to patients 1:30,000 (Berntson et al, 2005)
• Care delivered by inter-professional clinicians• Social workers, nurses, mental health clinicians,
MDs – Family physicians and psychiatrists• OPOP – 60 consultants from 6 university-based
programs whom provide a LOT of care• Telepsychiatry• Majority of time: direct care

Capacity BuildingCapacity Building• An identified objective of outreach to
underserviced areas: increase the capacity of local providers to provide appropriate assessment, care, and referrals.
• Many consultants do not spend any time providing education and of those who do, 2/3rds provide informal educational activities (65%), and 1/3 provide some formal education (31%).
Opportunity to strengthen the education component of outreach
Opportunity to strengthen the education component of outreach
• Identified gap and need for the OPOP model to go beyond the delivery of clinical care, to increase local capacity
“I think an education/training component is important ... So that there is something in addition left in the community. So that it shouldn't perhaps all be patient‐focused. It should have an education, training focus.”
“This survey helped me realize all the teaching I don’t do.”
Recommendations Mental Health Services in Smaller Northern Ontario Communities:
A Survey of Psychiatric Outreach Consultants
Recommendations Mental Health Services in Smaller Northern Ontario Communities:
A Survey of Psychiatric Outreach Consultants
Recommendations• develop a tool to aid in
prioritizing patients; • strengthen between‐visit
support services;• increase the use of
education as a capacity building tool;
• develop multidisciplinary outreach;
• create a sub-specialty support service for northern psychiatrists.
Response
• Local capacity building in community mental health providers may result in strengthened support services
THE PROBLEM: • Front-line mental health clinicians who work in under-serviced remote
settings, in Ontario and other places…such as Ethiopia, have minimal training yet see ++complex patients
• Geographic barriers & time constrains learning of these mental health clinicians
• Outreach consultants do little formal teaching yet recognize the potential benefit of building capacity in the communities where we provide outreach clinical services
A POTENTIAL SOLUTION: • Increase the educational role of outreach consultants and experts
through the creation of distance education materials to support these community agencies and build capacity
CE to Go – Methods ICE to Go – Methods I• Assembled team & advisory committee
• Northern Psychiatric Outreach Program-CAMH CE Committee, CMHA KT Director, Northern Branch ED,
Wilson Centre for research in education
• Created preliminary “menu” of evidence supported educational offerings from learning needs surveys, informants and consultation requests
• Recruited faculty experts
Methods IIEvidence based teaching of evidence based clinical practices
Methods IIEvidence based teaching of evidence based clinical practices
• Learning needs verified and ranked with CMHA northern branch clinicians and executive directors
• Formatted skills-based distance education modules based on CME best-practices : • Oral presentation with power point • SP demonstrations • Case-based, interactive learning guide • Practice reminders • ‘Commitment to Change’ exercise• Mentored local opinion-leader facilitators
Methods IIIMethods III• Invited nominations for & recruited opinion
leaders
• Following REB approval, recruited front-line mental health workers in 7 CMHA branches (north of Parry Sound) assigned to • self-directed v. facilitated small group learning
“Opinion Leaders”“Opinion Leaders”• A trusted professional colleague whom you
would turn to for advice on a difficult clinical matter
• Selected those with multiple nominations, verified with executive directors
- Community Support Worker

Pre-Course Measures1. Readiness for Inter-professional Learning Scale
(RIPLS; Parsell and Bligh) • This 19-item scale is used to explore differences in students'
perception and attitudes towards multi-professional learning. 2. Counselling Self-Estimate Inventory
(COSI; Larson 1992) • 42 self-assessment items measure the clinician’s ability to
track, respond and work with difficult patients. 3. Multiple-Choice Knowledge Questionnaires
(CE to Go faculty; 2010)• 25 MCQ items, some of which are case-based on each topic

A. Questions for Discussion• Define “hot thought”? List 3 techniques to help a patient identify a hot
thought.• What are ways to empathically respond to distress or tearfulness during a
session?
B. Experiential Tasks• Set an alarm to go off six minutes into the video. At that moment pay
attention to and write down your feelings and thoughts. Be thorough. What do you notice? Connection between the thoughts and emotions?
C. Homework• Complete the first three columns of the thought record on at least three
different occasions when you notice a change in emotion. Attend to what you notice about patterns that may emerge between the three thought records.

Future Steps & OpportunitiesFuture Steps & Opportunities• Modules in various stages of progress
• Translation of modules
• +/- add modules on other topics or build upon current modules (part II)
• Complete evaluation of 1st two modules• Focus Groups
Adjust intervention/protocol in response to results
• Use parts or whole modules with • differing groups of learners & facilitators including
visiting consultants
• in differing settings ( i.e. shared care, undergrad, post-grad, CME, inter professional education)
