This conference is a juried hearing of evidence and scientific findings. It allows for the engagement and collaboration of experts, policy makers in government and the health system, and stakeholders in addressing key questions around community based care for adults with severe, persistent mental illness. On the final day of the conference,Improving an expert jury Mental chaired by Health Dr Alain Lesage,Transitions Department of Psychiatry, University of Montreal, will release a Consensus Statement summarising the evidence and making recommendations for policy and practice in Canada and other countries The transition of services for those with severe mental illness from institutions to the community: are the mentally ill The Consensusbeing Development well served?

Despite the fact that mental illnesses account for up to 40% of disability in developed countries, in Canada only 5% of the health budget is http://www.ihe.ca/research/lnowledge-transfer-initiatives/--consensus-development-conference-program/spent on mental health. This deinstitutionalization (or as some refer to it, trans-institutionalization) has been a mixed blessing. Most people appreciate the additional freedom of being able to live in the community, but the anticipated improvement in outcomes is not being achieved. Increasing numbers of the mentally ill are to be found in the prisons and the homeless population. The recent evidence that the lives of those with schizophrenia, even when treated, are bleak, suggests that a review of the way in which we do things is in order.

    Annual Report 2019 - 2020 John Dossetor HEALTH ETHICS CENTRE Whether a health professional is a doctor, a nurse, a social worker, or other provider, we have an ethical responsibility to practice with a caring regard for the experiences of others—our patients and colleagues. At the John Dossetor Health Ethics Centre, we recognize that fundamental to ethics is a concern for whom or what is other to ourselves. We embrace activities that promote ethical understanding and lead to critical reflection on matters of moral concern in the practice and delivery of health care.

The essays in this collection challenge this stereotype by exam- ining the varied experiences of Ukrainian Canadians in their day-to- day roles as writers, intellectuals, national organizers, working-class wage earners, and inhabitants of cities and towns. Throughout, the con- tributors remain dedicated to promoting the study of ethnic, hyphenated histories as major currents in mainstream Canadian history. Topics explored include Ukrainian-Canadian radicalism, the conse- quences of the Cold War for Ukrainians both at home and abroad, the creation and maintenance of ethnic memories, and community discord embodied by pro-Nazis, Communists, and criminals. Re-Imagining Ukrainian Canadians uses new sources and non-traditional methods of analysis to answer unstudied and often controversial questions within the field. Collectively, the essays challenge the older, essentialist defi- nition of what it means to be Ukrainian Canadian. rhonda l. hinther is the Western Canadian History curator at the Canadian Museum of Civilization. jim mochoruk is a professor in the Department of History at the Uni- versity of North Dakota.

  • Annualreport-2004
    President’s Message Dear Members: ver the past year, the Alberta Division Board of Directors, working in collaboration with staff and volunteer Oleaders across Alberta, developed a “Strategic Plan” entitled “Maintaining the Momentum.” This is not a static report and the name was chosen with purpose. In the year 2005 Alberta will celebrate its 100th Anniversary. In that same year, CMHA will celebrate 50 years of social action, education and innovative services to Albertans. We should be proud of our achievements, but humbled by how much more needs to be done. During my term as President we have made significant gains by working together. I am most pleased by the progress we have made with regard to: • Convincing government officials to make mental health a priority • Influencing Alberta’s new mental health plan • Maintaining an Alliance of professionals, consumers and advocates • Diverting ill people from the criminal justice system • Promoting new housing options • Protecting sensitive health records • Developing innovative suicide prevention services And much, much more. As we move into Alberta’s second century, we have new promise. Changing attitudes and new services are on the horizon. But we are also facing new government leadership, new CMHA leadership and new roles for local communities who will have increasing responsibility for providing crucial services. These changes will provide us with opportunity. Change also carries risk. We must ensure that we “maintain the momentum.” I would like to thank all of the outstanding Board Members, Volunteers and CMHA Staff with whom I have worked during my years as President. You are the reason why our organization continues to be so effective.
