COVID-19: We are dedicated to keeping our patients and teams safe. Learn more.
Our specialized team of mental health care professionals is here for you. They understand the emotional risks of social isolation and other pandemic-related challenges.
Mental Health Assist is a virtual care program, featuring a team of Registered Nurses with proven mental health care experience.
At a sixty-minute session – by phone or by video – you will have the undivided attention of a nurse (with mental health expertise) who will listen to your concerns and provide you with support.
It is your session and you are empowered to share only what you are comfortable discussing. You can expect to be heard without judgment, gain new ideas for coping, and access to further support in the community.
The session is confidential, and a follow-up summary note about the appointment will be shared with your physician directly.
Your Mental Health Assist session is offered to you as one per patient, per concern.
If you are suffering from severe mental health symptoms call:
A formal referral is not required to access Mental Health Assist; however, your physician must be a member of CWC PCN (the clinic name will appear in the dropdown menu on the appointment request page).
Sixty-minute sessions are available Monday to Friday between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m.
CWC PCN Patient Connect is the secure application we use for this and other programs.
To request an appointment:
You will need an email address, and access to the Internet in order to create a free account on the app. If you require support to download and set up the app, our technical support team is happy to assist you.
