Canadians have made step-wise advancements in treating mental health in the past two decades. 15 years ago the stigma made it hard to even talk about. Today, COVID has accelerated the use of telehealth technology to make mental health support easier to access than before. Dr. David Goldbloom, senior medical advisor at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) joins us to talk next steps on mental healthcare in Canada, and the crisis the COVID-19 pandemic has both revealed and amplified. Dr. Goldbloom and Policy Speaking host Edward Greenspon talk about the NHS's stepped care approach that's seeing big success in the UK, how we can get a new cadre of mental health practitioners, the opioid crisis, and more.
