Success of the HFHT Mental Health Model
Objectives of Session
• Review the role of a child and youth centralized psychiatric service (CYCPS) within primary care in
Hamilton Family Health Team Hamilton Ontario‐ our first year experience
• Examine the successes and challenges of the first year of our CYCPS experience
• Encourage an interactive exchange with the audience to have the opportunity to discuss child
psychiatry within the primary care setting
How the Initiative Originated
• In response to the need in Primary Care for enhanced and centralized psychiatric services
(not emergency) ages 5 to 24 year olds and their families
• Moderate to severe complex mental health disorders –
difficult to diagnose/treat /not
responding at the practice level• Identified need to address the gap in capacity
and wait times in existing system
CYCPS Vision
• Early identification, assessment and treatment of moderate to severe mental illness in 5 to 24 year olds and families
• CYCPS and primary care collaboration will build and support the strengths and capacity in
primary care settings to– provide timely, practical and effective care, build
stronger relationship with community partners – schools, CAS/CCAS, community and social services
• Ongoing evaluation ‐
opportunity to plan, allocate resources, address feedback and need
for change

Opportunities and Challenges for C&YPCS and Early Intervention in Primary Care
• We need to identify youth earlier in illness• Minimize losses• Minimize missed developmental opportunities
• Need to intervene to reduce morbidity • Need to support reintegration into developmentally appropriate
social and occupational settings
• Need to reduce the risk and impact of relapse • Need to close the gaps in the system that contribute to loss of
follow‐through
• Wait times• Lack of organization and links between services• Multiple assessments
• Support mental health work in primary care
Year 1 Lessons Learned
• More attention to systems entry both the HFHT and community• Meeting with FP/MHC more often• Education, organization, feedback, follow up• Learning from our experience that more children and youth with
mental illness are being seen in primary care and being managed by
FP/MHC in the HFHT
• Greater collaboration with community resources (Schools,
CAS/CCAS, other children’s health services)
• Need for early identification, assessment, treatment, programs• Need for early family support and community involvement to build
skills and foster resiliency which will offer some protection
• Camp, sports, arts, music
