Note: NOI has been updated to reflect that the development has been cancelled and will be replaced by the NOI for CAN/HSO 22004, Mental Health and Addiction Services standard as requested by the responsible SDO on October 15, 2019. The Mental Health standard represents the continuum of care and is designed for settings ranging from community to inpatient facilities. These include community agencies, outreach services, outpatient care, schools and workplaces, primary care networks, and hospitals, and medical centers. A person-centered and recovery-oriented approach to treatment are emphasized with clients and families co-designing care plans, strategies, policies, and processes, and health promotion initiatives with care teams. The Mental Health Services standard is divided into 3 sections: 1) Core criteria (common to community-based and inpatient settings) 2) Community-based services 3) Inpatient services The scope includes services provided during the episode of care, such as assessments and care plan development, transitions between providers, settings, and levels of care, prevention and management of crisis, facilitated access to social support, and public health activities which the organization may undertake to promote mental health and reduce stigma and discrimination. What is not included in the scope for the revision of both standards - Topic or condition-specific themes (e.g. dementia ). The standard is applicable for a broad range of mental health issues with or without co-morbidities. - Addictions or other specific co-morbidities. - Age- and/or population-specific criteria (e.g.children and youth). The standard is applicable for clients of various ages and community groups. - Reference to specific organizations (e.g. shelter) or programs (anti-bullying). However, criteria do highlight importance of creating community partnerships and facilitating access for basic and mental health needs. - Administrative, financial or human resource management.
