Catherine:
This might be of interest to you, This is addictions program merging with
mental health services on a small scale in a primary health care model at
the Northeast Community Health Centre in Edmonton. The addictions
counsellor works as part of the mental health team. I believe they have
found some interesting results, although program is quite new. For more
information, contact call 472-5170. You might want to talk to Dennis the
addictions counsellor, who worked as a traditional addictions counsellor
before assuming this positions.
Hope this is helpful
