Jamie Marshall, MEd<br />

1.5 hours Focus: Systems Integration & Clinical Integrated Interventions<br />

Description:<br />

This workshop reviews the experience of the Central Okanagan Collaborative Care Project, a Canadian<br />

initiative begun in April 2005 that demonstrates effective partnerships and planning for effective service<br />

delivery with persons having CODs. It uses the skills of Physicians, Psychiatrists, Alcohol and Drug Clinicians<br />

and Mental Health Clinicians, all working together at one of three family practitioner sites in the Kelowna area.<br />

Positive outcomes have been reported and data are available. The project is one of three supported through<br />

<strong>University</strong> of British Columbia and Health Canada.<br />

Educational Objectives: Participants will be able to:<br />

• Explore a working model of collaborative care service delivery for concurrent disorders;<br />

• Identify links between collaboration and positive outcomes for persons with cods;<br />

• Examine tools used to develop a concurrent disorders program using the principles of collaborative<br />

care.<br />
