Our Medical Clinic Program integrates mental health professionals directly into family health teams. When a child visits their doctor, they can be immediately referred to a Starling mental health professional, bypassing long waits and ensuring timely, effective care. This approach not only frees up physician time but also guarantees that children receive the support they need right when they need it.
Our Emergency Department Diversion Team works within local hospitals to support families, redirecting youth in need of mental health support away from crowded emergency departments and toward more appropriate community supports. By intervening during these critical moments, we not only preserve vital hospital resources to provide timely, specialized care for those in urgent medical need, but also ensure that youth receive immediate attention and the highest quality of support to address their mental health needs.
Our Children’s Mental Health Centre location provides short-term live-in services, offering a seamless continuum of care when youth are discharged from the hospital. Here, young people receive ongoing treatment, monitoring, and support, until they are fully ready to return home.
