Education Training Programs
Our contributions to education in the Faculty of
Medicine have been outstanding. In the undergraduate
area, our department has been a local, national and
international leader in the use of standardized patients
and OSCE examinations. We continue to be the
largest provider of continuing medical education in
the Faculty of Medicine and have led a significant shift
away from single event CME to courses and programs
and innovative techniques. Our Fellowship Program
continues to attract trainees both internationally and
within Canada. We now have approximately 70 fellows enrolled and substantial numbers have completed
graduate degree training.
I would like to congratulate our Education Directors,
Raed Hawa, Ari Zaretsky, Sagar Parikh and Brenda
Toner and our Vice-Chair, Education, Susan Lieff, for
their dedication, enthusiasm and effectiveness.

The Clinician Scientist Training Program launched
in 2003, and is now under the leadership of Dr. Jeff
Daskalakis. This year the program had 25 participants.
International Initiatives
The Toronto Addis Ababa Psychiatry Project (TAAPP)
has continues to be very successful. When the program
began there were seven psychiatrists in Ethiopia - currently there are 39 with four new psychiatric units now
established in centres outside of Addis Ababa itself. As
a result of the success of this program, a partnership
has developed between the University of Addis Ababa
and the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Toronto which now involves 14 other departments. Clare
Pain has been the champion of this initiative with
support from Brian Hodges and a very active steering
committee. We also have sought to emphasize education scholarship and educational leadership.
The newly-established Global Mental Health Affairs (GMHA) program, led by Arun Ravindran, has
already contributed much to the department and the
international community. The program aims are to
build mental health research, academic training and
treatment expertise around the world. It strives to
increase public awareness of mental health issues, and
influence governmental policy and support for mental
health resources, at a global level. Dr. Ravindran has
been successful in garnering donations for developing countries, securing observerships and arranging
fellowships for international trainees, and establishing various capacity building initiatives in Asia, the
Middle East and Africa.

to be a part of this department, and more humbled
that I have been asked to lead it. We are at the cusp
of dramatic change in our understanding of mental
illnesses and the treatments we can offer our patients.
The rate at which public interest is growing about
mental health is truly unprecedented. This department
is poised to contribute to the field in the same way that
the discovery of stem-cells and insulin contributed to
their respective areas of medicine. I urge you all to
continue to strive for excellence and to redefine what
is possible. Following years of exceptional leadership
by Dr. Don Wasylenki, my hope is that we all remain
“excellent citizens of the University,” our communities, and the world.

Electives
The office of Electives in the Department of Psychiatry had another active year. Over one hundred
electives were completed in the department by local,
national, and international students. Visiting students
accounted for more than half of all electives in the department. As Electives Coordinator, Dr. Jon Novick
is actively involved with the Recruitment Committee
and has facilitated a greater connection between the
Electives office and the annual Psychiatry Institute.
A further feature to central Clerkship’s curriculum
integration was the implementation of the “Transition
to Residency” period and the conversion of traditional
“electives” to three “selective” matches for fourth-year
students. The aim of these selectives is to expose clerks
to opportunities that provide that continue the theme
of desegregated, cohesive learning experiences that

Canada and the world.
Over the past year, Dr. Sanjeev Sockalingam, Director
of IMG Training continued to provide an orientation
workshop and mentor IMG residents. Under his effective leadership and in collaboration with a number
of IMG residents in the program, a special orientation

needs of IMG residents in psychiatry. The IMG orientation manual has received wide acclaim and is now
being disseminated to all Canadian psychiatry residency

UHN, providing PGY-1s with enhanced opportunity
for mentoring and PGY-2s with longitudinal half-day
clinics for their psychotherapy patients and their patients with severe and persistent mental illness.
PRAT has also expanded opportunities for junior residents to be mentored by more senior residents. Transition to practice talks for residents have been organized
and these have been very well attended.
Changes in Faculty Involved in Residency Education
Chronic Care core rotation opportunities were expanded to include 3 months of Mood Disorders as
well as 3 months of Forensic Psychiatry or 3 months of
Developmental Disabilities. Dr. George together with
Dr. Stewart have organized formal Addiction Psychiatry
assessment clinics and supervision during the 6 month
Chronic Care rotation.
Under the able Psychotherapy Program leadership of
both Dr. Ravitz and Dr. Fefergrad, ITER completion
rates for psychotherapy rotations has improved and a
new Senior Psychotherapy Seminar was developed and
will be offered to all PGY-5 residents in the 2012-2013
academic year.
Dr. Julie Maggi returned from maternity leave and reassumed the Postgraduate Coordinator role for SMH.
Dr. Nadiya Sunderji and Dr. Adriana Carvalhal currentDr. Jonathan Hunter developed a special online rely share the Site Coordinator responsibility for WCH.
source for all staff psychiatrists to utilize while on-call.
During Dr. Laura Gage’s maternity leave, Dr. Zohar
Weisman assumed the interim role of Postgraduate Site
2010-2011 Special Residency Teaching/
Coordinator for Ontario Shores.
New Developments in Residency Education
Over the past year there have been a number of important new developments within the residency program.
After advocacy from COPE, the PGY-4/5 summative
STACER Examination was modified by the Royal
College Specialty Committee for Psychiatry to function
more like a annual Departmental Oral Examination for
senior residents. Senior residents are still expected to
pass two separate examinations but do not have a maximum of six attempts in order to be successful. These
recent modifications have made the STACER less
artificially stressful for senior residents but the rigour
of the assessment at the University of Toronto has not
changed.
Dr. Tugg and Dr. Sunderji have been very active in
developing the Shared Care Curriculum. Shared Care
was offered to all PGY-4 residents during the 6-month
consultation-liaison rotation. A new Shared Care ITER
was also developed and will be piloted in the 20112012 academic year.

Department of Psychiatry Annual Report

education reports
overview
The Fellowship Program provides an opportunity
for advanced academic training in specific clinical
and/or research areas in Psychiatry. Fellowships are
usually undertaken for two years, although a small
number of candidates choose a one-year Fellowship.
The Fellowship Program receives applicants from
within the Department as well as nationally and
internationally. There is a standard application process
and each Fellow works with a primary supervisor
in a specific Program within the Department. Each
Fellow must submit an annual report on their scholarly
activities and an award is offered each year based
on this report. The Fellowship Director reports
directly to the Vice-Chair, Education and sits on
the Education Council. The Fellowship Executive
consists of representation from hospital sites as well as
representation from Programs, Fellows and Psychiatry
Residents.
Events and Achievements
Awards Available to Fellows and
Supervisors
This was a very busy year for organizing competitions
and offering awards and developing new awards.
Fellows had the opportunity to nominate supervisors
for the “Paul E. Garfinkel Award for Best Fellowship
Supervisor” online, producing several nominations this
year. This year’s winner was Dr. Gary Remington.
We continued to offer “Best Accomplishment by
a Fellow Award.” This award is based on the best
submission of an annual report from a Fellow in the
Program. This year the award went to Dr. Alexandra
Soliman. We were pleased to offer several travel
awards this year to Fellows who were presenting their
research at scientific meetings.
Events
The Fellowship Program hosted a Fellows’ reception
on October 6th 2010. This reception provided the
26
opportunity for Fellows from all of the diverse hospital
sites to meet one another. In addition, Fellows had
the opportunity to meet and exchange ideas about
the Program with the Director, Executive Fellowship
Committee and Faculty and Trainees.
During this year, we are planning events based on
feedback from Fellows as well as events that seemed
to receive positive feedback in past years. Fellows who
serve on the Executive have taken a lead in organizing
further events for Fellows.
The Fellowship program hosted a very successful and
well-attended academic day on April 28th 2011. This
event gave Fellows the opportunity to present their
scholarly work to other fellows, supervisors and the
fellowship executive. The event also provided a forum
for academic and social exchange among Fellows.
Works in Progress
The Fellowship Program continued to emphasize
the importance of consistent effective evaluation and
report procedures throughout this academic year. This
initiative will continue to expand within the new
academic year.
The Director of the Fellowship Program is now a
member of the Faculty of Medicine PGME Fellowship
Educational Advisory Committee, which continues
to provide standard guidelines for Fellowships across
the Departments in the Faculty of Medicine. A new
in-training evaluation form for Psychiatry Fellows was
implemented for the 2010-11 academic year and is used
for online evaluations of clinical fellows.
Fellows
Please refer to tables below for a listing of Fellows by
Program or Division. There were 61 registered fellows
this academic year.

Continuing mental
health education
Within the Faculty of Medicine, the
Department of Psychiatry has a very strong
track record of high quality research.
28
education reports
overview
Psychiatry’s Continuing Mental Health Education
(CMHE) goals are consistent with University of
Toronto CEPD goals, involving advocacy of best
practices in education; promotion of scholarship
and research; expansion of the scope of CMHE;
and support for faculty development in CE. The
CMHE committee therefore acts as a mentoring
group, fostering the development of its members who
in turn spearhead multiple activities across our vast
department.
As it has for most of the past decade, the Department
of Psychiatry is the largest provider of accredited CE
programs in the faculty of Medicine, as well as the
largest academic provider of accredited CE programs
in psychiatry world-wide. While 53 Department
of Psychiatry programs (listed in the appendix) are
shown as accredited through the University of Toronto
in the table, there are numerous additional accredited
events such as Grand Rounds.
The major 53 programs span the range of formats,
including 14 large conferences aimed predominantly
at a wide audience, 22 longitudinal courses designed
to develop skills in participants from the local area,
14 intensive, 2-3 day training institutes designed to
impart very specific skills, usually in psychotherapy,
and 3 retreats. A fuller description of these programs,
with course brochures, is available on the CMHE
website:
http://www.utpsychiatyr.ca/Education/
ContinuingEducation/default.asp
In the area of research and scholarship, several
individuals hold grants as principal investigator in the
area of Knowledge Translation (KT), spanning both
provincial and federal granting agencies including
CIHR. Additionally, departmental members
have made numerous conference presentations and
published articles on CE research projects and on
scholarship in education. Dr. Jennifer Jones was
awarded the Dave Davis CEPD Research award from
the Faculty of Medicine, for Maximizing your Patient
Education Skills (MPES): a multi-site evaluation
of an innovative patient education skills training
course for oncology health care professionals, which
was also published in the journal Patient Education
and Counselling. Development of tools in Mood
disorders, in Mental health issues for Women, and in
Adolescent Mental health are significant foci. Key
national guidelines in Depression and in Bipolar
Disorder are co-authored by multiple department
members, who are then also involved in dissemination
activities of these guidelines. The Ivan Silver Award is the premiere recognition
in the Department of Psychiatry for scholarship in
Continuing Education, based on innovation in design,
educational formats, excellence in teaching delivery,
and measurement of outcome. This year, six events
were nominated that included programs in negotiating
difficult patient interactions for community-based
practitioners, handling on-call responsibilities for
faculty members, one on HIV and Mental Health for
community workers, a mental health program that
provides U of Toronto faculty to help manage mental
health problems in Nepal, a research-training program
in health services research, and a distance education
program for rural physicians. The latter program,
CE To Go: Capacity Building Through Distance
Education and Rural Underserviced Communities
was the winner. This distance education program
was co-sponsored by the AFP Innovation Fund and
the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-term Care
and in collaboration with the Psychiatry Outreach
Program from the University of Toronto.
A major attempt to expand the reach of our programs
has been through the expansion of web-based
programs; development of distance education for rural
practitioners, and new certificate programs.Further
development of faculty was fostered through the
CMHE Annual Retreat, which featured university
KT experts Dr. Simon Kitto and Dr. Eman Leung
Department of Psychiatry Annual Report

explaining how KT linked to patient safety, QI,
and similar initiatives. The workshop then took
participants through several examples of practical KT
initiatives. The CMHE committee also provides
modest support for research projects and for members
to attend conferences connected to scholarship in CE.

With Dr. Trevor Young assuming the Chair of the
University of Toronto, Department of Psychiatry,
Dr. Molyn Leszcz was appointed to the newly
established position of Vice Chair of Clinical
Programs in September, 2010. A central component
of the responsibilities of the Vice Chair of Clinical
Programs is to foster alignment of the resources and
programs, integration where appropriate and possible
and to foster communication between the clinical
programmatic areas of the University of Toronto,

The Mental Health and Addictions
Emergency Department Alliance
One of the central integrative clinical programs in
the University Department is the Mental Health
and Addictions Emergency Department Alliance.
This alliance brings together seven hospital partners
including; The Centre for Addiction and Mental
Health; Mount Sinai Hospital; St. Michael’s Hospital;
St. Joseph’s Hospital; UHN; Sunnybrook Health
Sciences Centre; and Toronto East General Hospital.
The Alliance was established to improve the quality of
care and the efficiency with which care is provided to
patients accessing emergency services in our respective
hospitals, recognizing the value in collaboration and
more efficient utilization of resources. The Alliance
is governed by a steering committee that consists
of representatives of each of the hospitals and is cochaired by Peter Voore representing the hospitals;
Molyn Leszcz representing the University; and Jan
Lackstrom as the administrative lead. The 2010-11 year
marked some important transitions in the Alliance.
We were very pleased to recruit, and bring back, a new
Administrative Director for the Emergency Alliance
with the hiring of Adair Roberts, who brings an
enormous knowledge of mental health and addictions
within the larger system of care to this important
portfolio. Adair Roberts also served as the Alliance’s
inaugural Administrative Director. Ian Dawe, who
had been the Medical Director of the Emergency
Alliance since its inception, stepped down to take the
position of Psychiatrist-in-Chief at Ontario Shores
in May, 2011. The ED Alliance is very grateful to Ian
for his leadership. We are also very pleased that Don
Wasylenki, after a search process, was appointed as the
Medical Director of the Emergency Alliance.
The Mental Health and Addictions Emergency
Alliance has been recognized for its innovation in
clinical care and improving the flow of patients
through Emergency Rooms and into inpatient and
alternative forms of care. The Alliance was one
of the programs invited to present in November
at the Ministry of Health and Long-term Care/
OMA Innovation conference highlighting successful
innovations emerging from funding through the AFP
Innovation Funding Program.
The Alliance also held its first summit, bringing
together clinicians, front line care providers and
administrators to evaluate our progress to date and set
our future course. The summit was an outstanding
success and underscored people’s commitment to the
success of this venture. What emerged clearly was
the need to continue to harness the full effectiveness
of existing innovations such as the daily bed call and
the transfer of patients between hospitals; tracking
of patient transfers; reducing wait times in the ED;
the use of the common assessment form; and, the
compilation of reliable data capturing the levels
of activity across the hospitals and identifying the
populations of patients seeking care. There is also
a great interest in expanding the Alliance to move
Department of Psychiatry Annual Report

Vice-Chair Reports
beyond emergency care alone to provide better
integration with inpatient and ultimately ambulatory
and community resources. Regular meetings have
begun to occur between the Inpatient Directors
focused on the dissemination of best practices for
inpatient care; improving discharge planning; and,
fostering a spirit of stronger collaboration.
The Alliance was also awarded a grant from the Toronto
Central LHIN (TCLHIN) to focus more specifically
on frequent users of the Emergency Room. We have
used this funding to develop a Frequent Users Working Group bringing together hospital and community
partners across the TCLHIN; learning from existing
innovative programs that engage patients effectively and
address core psychosocial needs in the area of mental
health and addictions care, while taking a systems-wide
view of the provision of care to this patient population.
Similar advances have occurred in regard to the ED
assessment of seniors presenting with mental health and
addictions concerns through innovative training and
education of front line providers. Supported initially
through the TCLHIN as well, this model of training
has drawn great national interest and recognition. The
opportunity to secure funding for this kind of program
of evaluation and intervention could only emerge in
the context of the capacity of the Alliance to work together and capture data effectively to impact change at
the systems level to improve the quality of care of our
individual patients.

Addiction psychiatry program
Addiction Program faculty offer training to practitioners across the province of Ontario, across
Canada and internationally.
Overview
The overall mission of the Addiction Psychiatry Program is to provide leadership in research, clinical care
and education in addictions and concurrent disorders
within the Department of Psychiatry at the University
of Toronto. Our strategic goals are: 1) to establish and
maintain exemplary clinical services for individuals
with drug, alcohol and behavioural addictions; 2) to
provide high-quality interprofessional education and
training at the medical undergraduate, postgraduate,
and continuing education levels; and; 3) to stimulate
and foster clinical and translational research in addictive disorders within the Department of Psychiatry and
with our academic and community partners.
Program Description
The Addiction Psychiatry Program is primarily
based at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health
(CAMH), with nineteen faculty having primary
appointments at that site. Seven other faculty have
primary appointments at St. Michael’s Hospital,
University Health Network, Mount Sinai Hospital,
Humber River Hospital, and North York General
Hospital. Dr. Tony George, the Chair in Addiction
Psychiatry, is Program Head. Addiction Psychiatry
education and training is coordinated by Dr. Pamela
Stewart at CAMH. Dr. Peter Selby is Clinical Director
of the Addictions Program at CAMH.
Events and Achievements
Dr. Peter Selby received the President’s Service Award
from Addictions Ontario. Dr. Bernard LeFoll was
appointed as Associate Member in the American
College of Neuropsychopharmacology (ACNP). Dr.
Tony George was appointed as Deputy Editor of the
ACNP’s journal, Neuropsychopharmacology, and
published an invited chapter on Nicotine and Tobacco
in Cecil Textbook of Medicine, 24th edition in June,
2011. The highly successful CAMH Addictions Program Research and Clinical Day will take place again
in December, 2011.
Postgraduate Education
Under the direction of Dr. Stewart, the training
experiences in addictions for all residents continued to
improve and have been consolidated at White Squirrel
Way Building at the Queen Street Site of CAMH.
Given the requirements of the Royal College to
conduct addiction training during the Chronic Care
Rotation in the PG-4 year, program faculty initiated
an advanced curriculum in Addiction Psychiatry to
meet the needs of senior residents, which began in
the 2011-12 academic year under the direction of Dr.
George. In addition, PG-1 Residents continue to
receive a 1-month Introductory rotation in Addiction
Psychiatry.
Continuing Education
Addiction Program faculty offer training to practitioners across the province of Ontario, across Canada
and internationally. One example is the Ontario-wide
“Training Enhancement in Applied Cessation and
Health” (TEACH) tobacco training program led by
Dr. Peter Selby. Lectures and symposia led by Addiction Psychiatry program faculty were presented at the
Annual Meetings of several professional organizations,
such as the Canadian Psychiatric Association (CPA),
the American Psychiatric Association (APA), the Society for Research on Nicotine and Tobacco (SRNT
which as held in Toronto in February, 2011), the
College on Problems of Drug Dependence (CPDD),
the American Society for Addiction Medicine (ASAM)
and the American College of Neuropsychopharmacology (ACNP). Addiction Psychiatry faculty gave nearly

Research Activities
Clinical and translational research is conducted by
several of our faculty both within the Department of
Psychiatry, and in affiliated departments such as Family
Medicine, Public Health, Psychology, the Institute of
Medical Sciences and Pharmacology. Program Faculty
published over 60 peer-reviewed publications in the
past year in general and subspecialty journals such as
The Archives of General Psychiatry, the American
Journal on the Addictions, Addiction, The American
Journal of Public Health, Addictive Behaviors, Biological Psychiatry, Drug and Alcohol Dependence,
Neuropsychopharmacology, Pediatrics, and Schizophrenia Research.
Finally, two new junior faculty researchers were
recruited to the Program. Dr. Christian Hendershot,
Ph.D. was recruited in an Independent Clinical Scientist in the CAMH Addictions Program from the
University of New Mexico to continue his research
on the genetics of addictive disorders. Dr. Andriyi
Samokhvalov, M.D., Ph.D. finished his fellowship in
the Social Epidemiology Research Division and was
recruited as an Assistant Professor in the Department,
and Clinician-Scientist in the CAMH Addictions
Program, with a focus on the evaluation and treatment
of alcohol, stimulant and opioid dependence.
There were several new and continuation grants in
the program, totaling in excess of $3.0 Million dollars
in direct costs. Notably, Dr. Bernard LeFoll received
a CIHR Catalyst Grant and a NIDA R21 Grant to
conduct a preliminary evaluation of the potential of
Sativex for the treatment of cannabis dependence. Dr.
Peter Selby continued his highly successful provincewide TEACH tobacco training initiative, as well
as the innovative Smoking Treatment for Ontario
Patients (STOP) study which has recruited more than
60,000 smokers across Ontario. Drs. Rachel Tyndale,
Tony George and Peter Selby continued their NIH/
NIDA-funded Cooperative Study “Pharmacogenetics
of Nicotine Addiction Treatment (PNAT)” which
is the first prospective pharmacogenetics trial in the
addictions field, examining the role of a geneticallyinformed biomarker (the nicotine metabolic ratio) in
the prediction of treatment response for two approved
tobacco pharmacotherapies, nicotine patch and varenciline.

determinants of mental illness and addiction.
Driven by the inspiration of Dr. Wasylenki, the
previous Department Chair, and the enthusiastic
support of Dr. Ari Zaretsky, Director of the PostGraduate Programs, an annual award program, Donald
Wasylenki Award for Best Sociocultural Psychiatry
Grand Rounds, was launched in 2009 to promote
resident interest in cultural psychiatry.
Core Lectures on Cultural Psychiatry
and Cultural Competence
The CCHS Program offered core curriculum lectures
to residents at the PGY-1 and PGY-2 levels. The
CCHS Program also contributes to the undergraduate,
graduate, and post-graduate curricula offered by the
Department of Psychiatry, the Institute of Medical
Sciences (IMS), and other University departments
including anthropology, nursing, psychology, public
health, sociology and social work.

Cultural Psychiatry Day
The CCHS Program runs an annual Cultural
Psychiatry Day. In the past two years, we organized
multisite interactive videoconferences for Cultural
Psychiatry. McGill University and the University of
British Columbia participated in the conference on
March 16, 2011. The theme of the 2011 University
of Toronto Cultural Psychiatry Day Conference was
Spirituality and Religion in Culturally Competent
Psychiatric Practice.
Keynote speakers were Kanae Kinoshita, Spiritual
Care Professional at Toronto General Hospital,
University Health Network; Dr. Myrna Lashley,
Professor of Psychology, McGill University and
Research Associate of Lady Davis Institute; Dr.
Andrea Grabovac, Assistant Professor, Department
of Psychiatry, University of British Columbia. Dr.
Dennis Kussin of University of Toronto, Dr. Jaswant
Guzder from McGill University, and Dr. Sharon
Smith of the University of British Columbia served as
discussants.
In addition to the three university departments,
two significant important institutions provided
sponsorships: Multicultural Mental Health Resource
Centre Project of the Mental Health Commission
of Canada and the Transcultural Section of the
Canadian Psychiatric Association. Drs. Fung, Lo,
and Andermann assumed the primary duties for the
organization of the conference.
Research
For many years, research in the CCHS Program has
concentrated on the epidemiology of immigrant
mental health, including the psychosocial adjustment
of immigrant children. Ongoing research include
the long-term mental health impact of exposure
to traumatic stress for Aboriginal youth and racial
40
minority adolescents; multicultural meanings of
social support among immigrants and refugees;
settlement issues and social determinants of health
among immigrants and refugees; identity, diversity,
mental health and well-being within marginalized
populations; sociocultural meanings of war trauma;
race and health; and the health and development of
immigrant and refugee children.
Ongoing research project topics by core faculty include
longitudinal investigations of psychiatric disorders in
children and youth of racial and ethnic minorities,
including Aboriginals; refugee resiliency; mental
health practices in the settlement sector; multilevel
challenges to immigrant well-being and social
integration; culture, ethnicity, and psychotherapy;
pathways to mental health care; racialism and mental
health; stigma of mental illness and addiction;
and teaching cultural psychiatry and curriculum
development.
“Issues and Options for Improving Mental Health of
Immigrant, Refugee, Ethno-Cultural and Racialised
Groups” is the first national data analysis, literature
review, and policy recommendations aimed at
developing equitable services for marginalized groups.
In partnership with Across Boundaries, Dr. McKenzie
and Dr. Simich developed “Community Partnerships
for Youth Health,” a new program that will enable
schools and community organizations to improve their
ability to help youth from marginalized populations.
The CCHS faculty continued to be highly successful
in receiving grants from the major granting agencies,
including the Canadian Institute for Health Research
(CIHR). In fact, as reported in the Department
Executive Research Committee Annual Report,
CCHS was one of the largest grant receiving programs
of the Department of Psychiatry, accounting for 9.2%
of the total grant amount reported by all programs
of the Department. Examples of the representative
research projects and training programs that were
either initiated or continued during the past year
include:
programs and divisions
• Pathways to first episode care for psychosis in three
ethnic groups in Ontario
• Culture and expression of depressive symptoms
• A community-based HIV/AIDS intervention

Research Fellowship
Social Aetiology of Mental Illness (SAMI) is a
post-doctoral research training program in social
determinants of mental health, which is based on a
CIHR strategic research training grant awarded to Dr.
McKenzie and Dr. Noh, the principal investigators of
the grant.
Through the integration of
clinical care and research,
the Neuropsychiatry program
provides highly specialized
services in the assessment

division of child and adolescent psychiatry
It’s mission is to promote optimal mental health in children (aged birth to 18 yrs.) and their
families and to contribute to the achievement of healthy communities
Overview
Our Divisional goals emphasize exemplary training,
research, scholarship, and the discovery and
dissemination of new knowledge in the context of
compassionate care, scientific rigor and evidence based
treatment. The Division of Child and Adolescent
Psychiatry is comprised of ten sites: the Child, Youth
and Family Program (CYFP) at the Centre for
Addiction and Mental Health; the Department of
Psychiatry at the Hospital for Sick Children (HSC);
the Youth Psychiatry Program at Sunnybrook; the
community based programs at Hincks-Dellcrest,
Youthdale, George Hull, and the Child Psychiatry
Program at North York General Hospital, Humber
River Regional Hospital, St. Joe’s Hospital. St.
Michael’s Hospital and Toronto East General offer
Selective Placements for residents in Child and
Adolescent Psychiatry..
HSC and CYFP constitute the hub at which the
majority of Divisional Research occurs, but teaching
is spread throughout the Division. There has been
considerable growth in the programs and services at
CYFP and HSC. CYFP offers services to families and
children from the preschool years to the early 20’s,
HSC from infancy to the 18th birthday. The range of
clinical services includes specialized areas as well as
more general clinical areas of concern.
The clinical services provide the node around which
training and research is organized. While there
is some overlap in the services provided at CYFP
and HSC, there are unique and distinct areas of
specialization between these two key sites. Programs
and services at HSC as distinct from CYFP include:
Eating Disorders, Neuropsychiatry (ADHD); Anxiety
Disorders and OCD; Infant Psychiatry; CYFP as
distinct from HSC, Youth Addictions and Concurrent
Disorders; Mood disorders, Young Offender
Assessments; Gender Identity Disorders, Early Onset
Psychoses; Substance Abuse Prevention for African
Canadian and Caribbean Youth (SAPACCY). HSC has
a psychiatric emergency service, an inpatient unit and
a consultation liaison service to medical and surgical
services. CYFP provides outreach to community
agencies and offers a program for the treatment of
children with disruptive behaviour disorders, a well
established fire-setting prevention program and a
general consultation clinic.
Community based Mental Health Centres at the
Hincks-Dellcrest, Youthdale, and George Hull
provide experience and training that complements the
hospital based experience at HSC and CAMH. For
instance, Hincks-Dellcrest provides community based
prevention programs to infants, and preschoolers and
their families at two high density development areas
in Toronto. Likewise, George Hull offers collaborative
mental health partnerships with community groups,
focused on early intervention and prevention programs
with children 0-6 years of age.
Faculty have established strong working relationships
and collaborations with other departments within their
host institution as well as University-based programs
in neuroscience, pediatrics, psychology, and education
and others. This rich mixture of faculty and trainees
from diverse disciplines broadens the perspective,
widens our training horizon and is reflected in our
research and scholarship.

Postgraduate Education
The Division has had another excellent year providing
high quality training in child psychiatry for career
track child psychiatry residents and for general
psychiatry residents completing their core child
psychiatry requirements. Eight sites provide core and
career track child training. Toronto East General
Hospital, Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre, and St.
Michael’s Hospital offer child senior selectives only.
This year the Division was asked to provide core child
psychiatry training for 39 PGY-3 residents. As the
psychiatry residency program continues to expand,
we have been asked to provide core training for more
residents. In order to address the increasing numbers
we have added Humber River Regional Hospital

of international fellows and fellows from other
Canadian universities. Over the last year, Fellows
presented at various prestigious meetings and achieved
several honours. Recent graduates of our Fellowship
Programme have gone on to establish careers at York,
Ryerson and McMaster Universities.

effectiveness and innovations. Educational events in
the 2010-2011 academic year included the 21st Annual
Child Psychiatry Day. The theme of Child Psychiatry
Day was, “Autism Spectrum Disorders: Myths and
Evidence”, was an outstanding event that drew a
capacity crowd and outstanding evaluations. Given the impending subspecialty status of Child
Psychiatry and the anticipated enrollment of resident
trainees in this subspecialty, the Faculty Retreat in
June 2011 focused on “Designing and Implementing
the Child and Adolescent Subspecialty Residency
Training Program”. Guest faculty, Susan Glover
Takahashi, PhD and Karen Leslie, MD assisted in this
task.
After 10 years of outstanding leadership of our CME
program, Dr. Tatyana Barankin has stepped down
to pursue other interests. We were fortunate that
Dr. Tony Pignatiello graciously agreed to organize
Child Psychiatry Day, and John Langley assumed the

division of Geriatric psychiatry
It’s mission is to promote optimal mental health in children (aged birth to 18 yrs.) and their
families and to contribute to the achievement of healthy communities
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
Mission
The Division of Geriatric Psychiatry strives for excellence in research into mental disorders in late-life and
the education of health care practitioners who treat
elderly patients. As service providers to a growing and
relatively under-serviced patient population, we also
act as advocates for these individuals in the area of
health policy.
Organization
Bruce G. Pollock is Professor and Head of the Division. There are six primary sites: Baycrest (acting
Head, Robert Madan), the Centre for Addiction and
Mental Health (CAMH; Head, Benoit Mulsant),
Mount Sinai Hospital (Head, Joel Sadavoy), Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre (Head, Nathan
Herrmann), the University Health Network (UHN;
Head, Alastair Flint) and St. Michael’s Hospital (Head,
Corrine Fischer).
FUNCTIONS
Clinical
The Division sites provide the full spectrum of clinical services for the management of elderly patients
with psychiatric illness. These include inpatient
units, outpatient services, day hospital, community
psychogeriatric services providing domiciliary visits,
and consultation liaison services to both acute-care
and long-term facilities. Corinne Fischer is chair of
the clinical co-ordination committee, which seeks
to better integrate levels of care according to areas of
specialization within the Division
Education
Formal educational activities are provided at the un-
dergraduate, postgraduate, fellowship, and continuing
education levels. The undergraduate education coordinator is Vincent Woo. Division members are active
in all aspects of the undergraduate curriculum, which
includes the pre-clerkship, clerkship, and psychogeriatric electives. The postgraduate education coordinator
is Robert Madan. The Division trains every single
resident in the program in geriatric psychiatry, as
mandated by the Royal College requirements. The
Division also trains residents interested in career
paths in geriatric psychiatry. Alastair Flint is fellowship coordinator. The Division offers institutionally
funded fellowships at Baycrest, CAMH, Sunnybrook
and UHN. The Continuing Education Committee is
chaired by Zahinoor Ismail. The Division endeavours
to organize continuing education activities for primary
care physicians, allied health professions as well as
geriatric psychiatry subspecialists.
Research
Opportunities for clinical and translational research in
geriatric psychiatry are considerable and there are particular divisional strengths in functional neuroimaging
(PET & fMRI), pharmacometrics, pharmacogenetics
and clinical trials methodology. A new brain stimulation laboratory was funded by the Canada Foundation
for Innovation (CFI) and Ministry for Research and
Innovation (MRI), to study neuroplasticity in young
and older patients with severe mental illness. Tarek
Rajji serves as Research Coordinator for the Division.
Graduate advisors within the Division are available to
those enrolled in the Clinician Scientist Program.
Public Policy
Division members have leadership roles in national

the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care
and the U.S. Food & Drug Administration.
PROGRAM DEVELOPMENTS 2010/2011
Organization
The Division continued to expand and consolidate
its academic activities this year. This year new faculty
included Daniel Blumberger, Aristotle Voineskos and
Robyn Waxman. Vincent Woo was promoted to Assistant Professor, Susan Lieff was promoted to the rank
of Professor and Nathan Herrmann received the 2010
Canadian Academy of Geriatric Psychiatry (CAGP)
Award for Outstanding contributions in Geriatric
Psychiatry. Quarterly meetings were held this year in
conjunction with city-wide Grand Rounds at Mount
Sinai Hospital, CAMH, St. Michael’s Hospital and
Sunnybrook Hospital.
Clinical
Members of the Division of Geriatric Psychiatry
continue to be involved in several initiatives in the
Toronto Central LHIN (TC-LHIN). Carole Cohen
along with the crisis teams in the TC-LHIN developed a centralized access line (the Seniors Crisis
Access Line (SCAL)) for seniors with mental health
and addictions problems. This project has been piloted
and is now functioning in the LHIN. Additional
work is underway to explore the potential merger of
SCAL with other “access hubs” serving seniors and to
improve access to senior specific short-term crisis case
management teams. Carole Cohen continues to chair
two working groups—1) psychogeriatric outreach
teams providing consultation to Long term Care
(LTC) Homes in the Toronto area and 2) psychogeriatric outreach teams providing assessment and treatment
to community residing patients. These quarterly meet-
48
ings allow teams to better co-ordinate care, share best
practices, provide consultation as needed to the LHIN
and link psychogeriatric services with other service
providers such as the CCAC, supportive housing and
community support agencies that serve these patients.
The Centralized Access to Specialty geriatric mental
health Services (CASS), developed with input from
Joel Sadavoy, has continued to receive support from
the TC-LHIN. The CASS office is located and
managed at the Reitman Centre for Alzheimers
Support and Training at Mount Sinai Hospital and is
coordinated by Angelina Yau and Mary Chiu. Now

lead to improved triage and flow of patients.
This year, CASS has begun to develop a closer working relationship with CCAC and other stakeholders
key to managing ALC patients. The goal is to enhance
system responsiveness to a small but important number of geriatric patients in ALC beds because of difficult to manage behavioural problems.
The Emergency department geriatric mental health
project (EDGMH), also developed with the input
of Joel Sadavoy and originally supported by the
TC-LHIN, was successfully implemented in all the
programs and divisions
ED’ s of the TC-LHIN general hospitals. The project
provides core education to all front line personnel
using e-learning methods. The program also includes
new processes for inter-staff communication and new
protocols for data management and transmission. The
documented positive outcomes in EDs using the program to date have lead to interest from other hospitals
in Ontario and beyond. Most recently the education
and process change components of the EDGMH
project have been adopted and fully implemented by
Scarborough General hospital.
The TC-LHIN has initiated two new projects for
system change that have strong input from Division
members:
wick, the project coordinator. The project has been
created to support family caregivers dealing with
complex high risk problems of seniors at home. The
central element of this program is to identify a core
problem of a caregiver and provide each of them
with specific financial or other resources to solve that
problem. Thirty Senior Enhanced Care Coordinators
(SECs) of the CCAC will be assigned this task for 150
families. The Reitman Centre for Alzheimer’s Support
and Training has partnered with this initiative to provide specialized training in problem identification
and management of care givers using adapted problem
solving tools originally developed for family caregivers
(The Reitman CARERS Program).
1) The Integrated Client Care Project (ICCP) to
provide coordinated primary, supportive and specialty care to carefully defined high risk seniors in
4 quadrants of Toronto. Carole Cohen is currently
representing the psychogeriatric sector on the implementation committee of this project. The pilot phase
has been initiated under the leadership of the CCAC
and Jodeme Goldhar, the project coordinator. Thirty
high risk seniors in each quadrant (120 in all) have
been identified and assigned to a skilled case coordinator. Management will be coordinated through
all phases of care including comprehensive home
based care, use of specialties as needed, emergency
department and in hospital care. A key element of
the project will be the direct focus of coordinators on family caregivers. The coordinators will
receive specialized training in helping caregivers deal
with the complex psychological factors that increase
caregiver burden. The Reitman Centre for Alzheimers
Support and Training has contracted with ICCP to
provide 18 hours of intensive training of coordinators
using an adapted form of the Reitman method for
therapeutic support of family caregivers (The Reitman
CARERS Program).
Education
2) The Caregiver Framework Demonstration Project, under the leadership of Fancoise Hebert, the
Alzheimer’s Society of Toronto, and Natalie War-
Division members are active in all aspects of the
undergraduate curriculum. In Postgraduate education,
the Division trained residents in mandatory training
positions, career-path residents, and fellows. For each
6-month block, there was a monthly centralized seminar series led by various faculty members in the Division. Robert Madan and Sid Feldman continue work
on a new undergraduate medical education curriculum
for Geriatrics with funding from the AFP Innovation
Fund. Robert Madan and Joel Sadavoy are completing
work on the Geriatrics sub-specialty at the University
and Royal College levels. Andrea Iaboni received the
Division’s Resident Award in Geriatric Psychiatry as
well as the Canadian Academy of Geriatric Psychiatry
Fellowship Award.
Research
Substantial progress continues to be made in many
areas of research with another considerable increase
in external funding to Division investigators. The
thematic highlights of the ongoing projects include:
cognitive impairment in late life bipolar disorder,
depression, and schizophrenia; depression and coronary artery disease, genetic and therapeutic studies in
traumatic brain damage; neuroreceptor imaging of
dopamine, serotonin and muscarinic receptors in a

variety of late-life conditions and amyloid deposition
in Alzheimer’s disease and frontotemporal dementia;
pharmacotherapy of dementia and related psychiatric
symptoms; and neuroplasticity studies across the
lifespan using brain stimulation techniques.
This past year young investigators in the Division had great success. Daniel Blumberger, Peter
Giacobbe, Tarek Rajji, Aristotle Voineskos received
2011 NARSAD Young Investigator awards. Aristotle
Voineskos was also honoured with the CIHR Institute
of Aging Age+ award and the Institute of Medical
Science (IMS) Siminovitch-Salter award. Bruce Pollock was presented with the 2011 American College
of Psychiatrists Geriatric Psychiatry Research Award
at their annual meeting and David Conn was the
Co-recipient of the 2010 Canadian Institutes of Health
Research (CIHR) Betty Havens award for Knowledge
Translation in Aging along with Ken LeClair from
Queen’s University and the Canadian Coalition for
Seniors’ Mental Health (CCSMH).
The annual scientific meeting of the CAGP was held
in Toronto in September 2010. The Division was
well-represented at this meeting: Mark Rapoport
co-chaired the 2010 scientific committee of which
Zahinoor Ismail and Benoit Mulsant were also members; Nathan Herrman and Robert Madan presented
plenary session and many Division members led various workshops.

Research
A key move in 2011 has been the establishment of
research days, co-convened by the University of
Toronto, CAMH and Waypoint. We had the first in
March 2011, with words of greeting by Prof Young
and the key note address delivered by Prof Chris
Webster, Professor Emeritus at U of T. It was attended
by over 70 people and included presentations from staff
at CAMH and Waypoint. A second day is planned for
late in 2011.
Dr. Nathan Kolla returned from his fellowship in New
York and he continues his work as a CIHR clinical
scientist scholar.
In 2010/2011, Associate Professor James Cantor’s
research program on the role of the brain in pedophilia
and sexual offending continues to be of interest to
the scientific community. He has provided reviews
of his team’s findings as invited keynote lectures to
the Summer Conference on Research in Forensic
Psychiatry in Regensberg, Germany and to the
Association for the Treatment of Sexual Abusers in
Toronto. Other invited lectures include those given to
the International Behavioral Development Symposium
in Lethbridge and symposia for the Association for
the Treatment of Sexual Abusers, the International
Academy of Sex Research, and the annual meeting of
56
the Society for Sex Therapy and Research.
As part of his contributions of his field, Dr. Cantor
also serves as the Editor-in-Chief of Sexual Abuse:
A Journal of Research and Treatment. Dr. Cantor’s
work is funded by two research grants, one from the
Canadian Institutes for Health Research ($1,071,920)
and one from the University of Toronto ($10,000).
Notable research at Waypoint includes important
progress on the Ontario Domestic Assault Risk
Assessment (ODARA). This instrument has been used
internationally to assess the risk of repeated domestic
assault since its launch by the Research Department
at Waypoint Centre for Mental Health Care in 2004.
Under the leadership of Dr. Zoe Hilton, ODARA
training has moved into the electronic world thanks
to a Safer and Vital Communities Grant from the
Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional
Services. Developed in collaboration with the Ontario
Provincial Police, the ODARA is a validated tool for
identifying and communicating the risk of re-assault.
Now available in an e-learning program, “ODARA
101” will allow police, child protection workers, notfor-profit women’s agencies, forensic hospital staff and
other front-line workers to learn to use it any day of
the year and at any time that fits their schedule.
At CAMH key projects are established looking at
pathways into forensic care, measures of dynamic
risk in forensic patients, risk assessment techniques,
brain imaging and psychopathy and consideration of
factors that may be able to explain the continuing
rise in forensic patient numbers in the province. A
twice weekly research meeting has been established
to encourage the development of research projects
and support academically interested forensic staff in
developing and contributing to research projects.

sunnybrook health sciences centre
The Mood and Anxiety Disorders Program at
Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre has continued to
strengthen and grow in the 2010-2011 Academic Year.
From a clinical perspective, the Adult Mood Disorders
Clinic (Drs. Chandler, Schaffer, Levitt) and OCD
Clinic (Dr. Richter) continue to thrive, providing
primarily consultative care to patients throughout
southern Ontario. The Youth Bipolar Disorder Clinic
has now been firmly established under the leadership
of Dr. Ben Goldstein and this program is quickly
becoming a provincial resource in this important
area. Treatment of adolescents with mood and anxiety
disorders remains a key focus within the department.
Within the hospital structure, the Mood & Anxiety
Disorders Program remains a major pillar of the Brain
Sciences Program at Sunnybrook Health Sciences
Centre. From an academic perspective, recruitment
over the past several years (Drs. Chandler, Goldstein,
Richter, and Rector) has resulted in expansion of
teaching and research achievements. There are a
growing number of research projects funded by
local, provincial, national, and international agencies.
Examples include a focus of research on adolescent
depression (Dr. Cheung, CIHR funded research and
Ontario Ministry of Health Career Award), adolescent
bipolar disorder (Drs. Kreindler and Goldstein),
psychological treatments for youth (Dr. Adler-Nevo),
CBT for social anxiety disorder (Drs. Cassin, Rector),
genetics of OCD (Dr. Richter), novel treatments
for depression (Dr. Levitt), population health and
clinical trials in mood disorders (Dr. Schaffer), and
a longitudinal adult mood registry (Dr. Chandler),
among others. The faculty continues to also be
highly rates for supervision of undergraduate trainees,
graduate students, psychiatry residents, and postdoc fellows. This past year Dr. Amy Cheung was
promoted to Associate Professor and Dr. Neil Rector
was promoted to Full Professor. Dr. Rector was also
awarded the National Alliance on Mental Illness’s
Scholarship and Research Award and Dr. Gili Adler
Nevo won the Toronto East General Hospital New
Researcher Award
By all measures, 2010-2011 has been a very productive
period for the Mood Anxiety Disorders Program and
we intend to maintain this focus in the coming year.

Pharmacogenetics lab published several
groundbreaking papers including one which
simultaneously evaluated the impact of nicotine and
nitrosamine pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics
on smoking and also on lung cancer (Wassenaar, JNCI
2011). Her group also demonstrated the superiority
of extended nicotine patch therapy in genetically slow
but not normal metabolizers (CPT Lerman 2011).
Dr. Tyndale also published the first two of a series of
papers culminating from her collaboration with Dr.
WC Chen on smoking and health consequences in
Southern China.
Dr. Franco Vaccarino and Dr. Susan Rotzinger were
part of the organizing team for the Canadian Network

The Neurogenetics Lab at CAMH has made
significant inroads into the understanding of the
pharmacogenetics of antipsychiatric-induced weight
gain, as well as the genetics of placebo response
in antidepressant therapy. In the former, the
melanocortin-4 receptor gene was implicated based on
its hypothalamic expression and interaction with leptin
(Chowdhury et al, 2011). For placebo response, genes
in the serotonin system were found to help predict
those patients who had a stronger placebo response
(Tiwari et al, 2011).

The PET Centre at CAMH was renamed Research
Imaging Centre because of the addition of a new
MRI suite as well as a second radiochemistry lab
and cyclotron, which increases the capacity to do
neuroimaging research. The new MRI arrived on
site in May this year. This is the only MRI in Canada
that is dedicated to research in addictions and mental
health.
Construction continued at CAMH to accommodate
new equipment and space requirements with funds
received in 2009 from the Canadian Foundation for

NeuroIMAGENE grant.
UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO NEUROSCIENCE
PROGRAM
The University of Toronto Neuroscience Program
(UTNP) Advisory Committee led by Dr. Michael
Fehlings discussed the possibility of offering a specific
graduate degree in Neuroscience at the University
of Toronto. Faculty and students were consulted via
62
a survey to obtain broad community feedback on
this possibility. The response was overwhelmingly in
favour of having a degree at the MSc and PhD level.
Further discussions will be held in the coming months.
PROMOTIONS & AWARDS
Dr. Fang Liu was promoted to Full Professor this year.
Earlier this year seven junior scientists at CAMH
were awarded Young Investigator Awards from the
National Alliance for Research on Schizophrenia
and Depression. Drs. Houle, Kennedy and Petronis
are supervisors of three of the seven award recipients.
Seven awards for one institution was the best
performance worldwide. For example, the Institute of
Psychiatry in London UK received three awards, and
no hospital in the Harvard University system obtained
more than four. Thus CAMH can claim very high
status for recognition of its strong cadre of bright and
creative young investigators.
Overall the Department of Psychiatry Neuroscience
Research Program is strong and diverse with a
steady increase in productivity in terms of grants and
publications.

FUNCTIONS AND POLICY
The Psychotherapy Program carries educational
responsibility for the training of residents in the
psychotherapies, as mandated by the Royal College
of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada, and for this
purpose has developed an extensive syllabus and
training implementation protocol. Leaning objectives
are achieved over the four years of resident training
and are intended to ensure residents receive appropri-
ate training in the utilization of evidence supported
contemporary psychotherapeutic approaches within
psychiatry. Educational foci also reflect initiatives at
the undergraduate and fellowship levels.
Continuing education and continuing professional
development activities reflect a major commitment on
the part of the Psychotherapy Program and are offered
in a range of accredited formats including courses,
workshops, certificate programs and conferences. The
Psychotherapy Supervisors Retreat is an annual educational event that provides continuing education for
Program faculty who supervise residents. This year’s
topic was “Innovating and Advancing Psychotherapy
Training,” and focused on curriculum renewal of
advanced post-graduate training with presentations by
Drs. Shelley McMain, Katharina Manassis and Allan
Peterkin. Additional faculty development is offered
through the CBT Supervisors Group (Dr. Mark Fefergrad), the Junior Psychotherapy Supervisors Seminar
(Dr. Sian Rawkins), with education scholarship supported by a data base of peer-reviewed literature on
psychotherapy supervision (Dr. Paula Ravitz). Within
Health Arts and Humanities, curriculum has been
created for all levels from undergraduate medicine,
post-graduate psychiatry to continuing education and
faculty development. The Psychotherapy Program is committed to addressing important issues that relate to applicability
and accountability of the psychotherapies in order to
ensure both appropriate access to and effective delivery
of a breadth of psychotherapies in the community,
with inclusion in consensus treatment guidelines where
indicated. This encompasses a commitment to train
psychiatrists to be expert practitioners of evidence
supported treatments, providing direct service, as well
as effective consultation, supervision and collaboration
with inter professional mental health professionals in
the provision of indirect service. In addition to residency training, public education is an allied, important
component of this. Department of Psychiatry Annual Report

Space for Arts and Humanities in the Education of
Health Professionals” at Mount Sinai Hospital, chaired
by Dr. Peterkin at Mount Sinai on May 7th, 2011.
Dissemination of evidence supported psychotherapies
remains a priority. In addition to a growing number
of accredited CE courses offered through CAMH, the
Mt. Sinai Psychotherapy Institute, University Health
Network and the Child Division, educational outreach
and knowledge translation initiatives were conducted
with group psychotherapy teaching in China (Dr.
Molyn Leszcz); an adaptation of IPT for Ethiopia
developed by Drs. Paula Ravitz, Clare Pain, and Dawit
Wondimagegn from Addis Ababa University; and in
northern Ontario underserviced community mental
health clinics. Distance education courses were held
in seven northern Ontario Canadian Mental Health
Association branches, with materials created by faculty
Wayne Skinner, Dr. Mark Fefergrad and Dr. Ari
Zaretsky.
Senior residents who pursued senior psychotherapy
selectives included Drs. Kalam Sutander, Justin Weissglas, Steven Selchen and Lakha Singh. The successful
blending of psychotherapy foci with addictions;
psychosomatics; mood; outreach psychiatry; trauma;
shared care; health arts humanities; and, women’s
mental health has continued. Residents also pursued
psychotherapy electives focused within the areas of
CBT; IPT; DBT; CBASP; group psychotherapy;
psychological trauma; and the humanities.
Several resident wellness and development initiatives
have been newly added including longitudinal group
psychotherapy, and facilitated psychotherapy access for
70
residents. In addition, this year’s academic days included: The XXVII Psychotherapy Day, featuring Dr.
Paul Wachtel, who gave a presentation on “Integrating Depth and Context: The Integrative Relational
Model;” Couple/Family Therapy Day, (organized by
Dr. Leo Chagoya), focused on theories relating to new
forms of brief family therapy; Group Day, (organized
by Dr. Molyn Leszcz), which provided residents with
the opportunity to learn about group dynamics,
cohesion, group leadership and group therapy principles, by being themselves in an experiential group of
several hours duration whose purpose was educational;
Interpersonal Therapy Day (organized by Dr. Paula

RISE Programs
RISE is home to two major departmental programs:
the Toronto Addis Ababa Psychiatry Program
(TAAPP) and the Social Science and Medicine Allied
in Research and Teaching (SMART) Program. The
TAAPP Program Headed by Dr. Clare Pain, continues
to have remarkable growth.
This program was established in 2003 as a collaborative effort to build capacity in Ethiopia through the
development of a Residency Program in Psychiatry.
Co-coordinated by TAAPP members Drs. Atalay
programs and divisions
Alem and Mesfin Araya, the TAAPP Program has
helped build capacity in a number of ways. Since the
establishment of the program, nearly 50 residents have
graduated from the University of Addis Ababa greatly
increasing the number of psychiatrists in the country.
As well the TAAPP Program, through the Wilson
Centre for Research in Education and the Whitby
Mental Health Centre has hosted a series of visiting
scholars and professors. Last year Dr. Teshome Shibre,
Chair of the Department of Psychiatry at Addis Ababa
University. Dr. Shibre spent one year visiting Toronto
focusing on advanced clinical work, education and
program development.
The TAAPP Program has been an inspiration for the
development of a larger city-wide program called
“the Toronto Addis Ababa Academic Collaboration”
(TAAAC) which now involves more than 14 departments throughout the departments and hospitals
throughout the University of Toronto Academic
Health Sciences Network.
The Social Science and Medicine Allied in Research
and Teaching (SMART) Program began in 2006 as
the Social Science arm of the Department of Psychiatry Pedagogical Partner Program (PPP). Like the PPP
it was intended as a faculty development program
that would encourage collaboration and an integrated
approach to teaching and research between clinicians
and scientists.
The SMART Program has evolved extensively
over the years holding a number of academic events
and programs. In July 2011 the SMART Program
organized a workshop focusing on a problem-based
introduction to mental health services research. This
innovative 5-day mental health services research
workshop used multiple teaching modalities to help
clinicians and researchers gain experience with the
concepts necessary to develop a mental health services
research project. There were 8 participants including
clinical psychologists, psychiatry residents, advanced
practice nurses, community mental health outreach
workers and program area managers and administrative directors from across Ontario including Northern
Ontario. The Program was highly rated by participants
who recommended continuing to expand the project
and to offer it to more groups in acute care community and mental health settings.
Research, Scholarship and Innovation
RISE researchers continue to be very productive in
terms of grant capture, publication and presentation at

Schizophrenia program
“The Schizophrenia Program has a strong tradition in bench-to-bedside research and the
integration of clinical, teaching, and research activities.”
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
The Schizophrenia Program has a strong tradition
in bench-to-bedside research and the integration of
clinical, teaching, and research activities. There are
two funded post-doctoral fellowships offered, the
Bebensee Fellowship and the Cleghorn Fellowship, in
order to facilitate research training in schizophrenia.
Services address all stages of the illness. For example,
the First Episode Psychosis Program provides comprehensive care to young people when they initially
become ill. Community-based services linked to these
programs include HIP (Home Intervention for Psychosis) and LEARN (Learning Employment Advocacy
Recreation Network).
PROGRAM DEVELOPMENTS
Dr. A. Bassett holds the Canada Research Chair in
Schizophrenia Genetics, while Dr. R. Ganguli holds
the Canada Research Chair in Chronic Disease
Management.
PROGRAMS OF RESEARCH
The program is committed to increasing our
understanding of schizophrenia, while providing
optimal treatment in an environment that inextricably
links excellence in research and clinical care.
Economic restraints challenge health care but at the
same time encourage the use of existing resources in
creative ways that will ultimately translate to enhanced
care. This is clearly evident in our largest setting
(CAMH) under the leadership of Dr. George and
April Collins, the Program’s Administrative Director,
Clinical programs, based at the Queen Street site, offer where various areas of clinical and research expertise
are being integrated within a model encouraging more
intensive support to patients who have been seriously
disabled by their illness. Care is also provided through seamless access to resources that focus on communitybased care.

of investigation, we have academic ties that extend
across Canada and throughout the world.
SUMMARY OF 2010-2011
Our work in neuroimaging continues along several
lines. Drs. A. Graff and R. Mizrahi are each involved
in ongoing PET studies representing exiting
opportunities to tease apart the pharmacological
underpinnings of schizophrenia. Lines of investigation
include the isolation of specific receptors e.g. D3
(Graff ), the relationship between stress, dopamine
release and psychosis (Mizrahi). Dr. Menon is using
fMRI in combination with pharmacological probes
to examine the neural correlates of various symptoms
characterizing schizophrenia, while Dr. A. Voineskos
recently completed his PhD through the Clinician
Scientist program and is employing magnetic
resonance diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) in efforts
to better delineate white matter fibre tracts in vivo.
Another junior faculty member, Dr. Michele Korostil,
is also completing her PhD which focuses on the use of
functional MRI to examine neural systems underlying
practice-related learning effects in persons with
schizophrenia.
Dr. J. Daskalakis, with an expertise in repetitive
transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), continues
to examine its utility both as a treatment tool and
a unique strategy for examining the underlying
pathophysiology of schizophrenia (e.g. GABA), as well
as other disorders.
The program maintains a strong foothold in genetics
through Drs. A. Bassett, J. Kennedy, A. Wong, D.
Mueller, and V. De Luca. The strategies are diverse,
ranging from the examination of schizophrenia
candidate genes in Canadian families (Bassett) to the
identification of genetic markers related to treatment
response and side effects (Kennedy, Mueller, De Luca)
to how epigenetic mechanisms lead to developmental
changes in animal models of psychosis (Petronis,
Wong).
The newer antipsychotics have increased awareness in
our field regarding the importance of physical wellbeing in schizophrenia, and a number of our faculty
are involved in this line of research. As well as the
geneticists, Dr. M. Hahn, a junior faculty member
currently completing her PhD, has a particular interest
in examining the mechanisms underlying metabolic
disturbances associated with these drugs. Drs. T. Cohn
and R. Ganguli are, in turn, are examining clinical
strategies that may be used to prevent and treat weight
gain and metabolic disturbances, with their increased
morbidity/mortality risk. Dr. G. Remington’s work
includes both animal and clinical studies examining
side effects such as tardive dyskinesia and glucose
dysregulation.
Dr. Foussias, a senior research fellow who recently
completed his residency training here at the University
of Toronto, is presently carrying out his PhD
through the Clinician Scientist program. His work
is focused on negative symptoms in schizophrenia,
and he is drawing upon unique strategies (e.g. virtual
environment) as a means of addressing these with a
more ecologically valid model.
Dr. O. Agid’s research involves the systematic
collection of clinical data in the context of treatment
algorithms and has important implications in shedding
light on decision-making regarding both choice of
antipsychotic and dose.
Dr. K. McKenzie brings a focus on the science of
improving mental health services, including social
determinants of health and redesigning mental health
services for visible minority groups. He also holds
CIHR funding for a training program that represents
an important step in meeting our needs in this regard.

mechanisms of resilience among marginalized persons
and the effectiveness of psychiatric rehabilitation
interventions.
Dr. T. George’s expertise provides us critical clinical
and research expertise in the field of addictions. It is
well known that a large number of individuals with
schizophrenia smoke and/or use other substances
and Dr. George’s work addresses not only treatment
strategies, but efforts examining underlying
pathopyhsiologic links.
The success of these individuals is reflected in their
external funding, which includes awards from the
Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR),

such as partial hospital and high support housing. It
implemented nearly 40 high support housing beds
in the GTA linked to its clinical services, and started
a partial hospital program at the Queen Street Site,
expected to be fully operational by the Fall of 2011.
The program also continued to develop interprofessional practice to support the recovery model of care.
It also continued to be an important site for training
psychiatry residents doing their chronic care rotation
and for other students in medicine, nursing, social
work, and other allied mental health professionals. The
program has 21 clinician scientists including 18 MD
and 3 PhD scientists, 10 post-doctoral fellows, and 8
graduate students. These investigators published nearly
125 peer-reviewed articles in 2010-11, and held grant
funding from agencies such as CIHR, NIDA, OMHF,
Schizophrenia Society of Ontario, NARSAD, and
pharmaceutical contracts, in excess of $3.0 million.
Notably, the program received 4 of the 8 new CIHR
grants awarded to CAMH in the Spring 2011 national
competition.
With more than 300
physicians on staff, a highly
committed staff of more
than 2,800, and over 1,000
volunteers, CAMH continues
to meet its targeted decrease
in length of stay for both acute
and longer stay admissions.
Director: Linda Mohri, MSW, RSW
Under its new leadership, the program refocused its
work with women who experience mental health
and addictions issues in the context of a trauma
history. With an increased emphasis on Dialectical
Behavioral Therapy (DBT) skills and other groups,
the inpatient unit was able to serve more women and
to decrease its length of stay. The program is now
planning to increase the scope of its outpatient treatment program to further increase access. The program also collaborates with, and co-leads the new
Women’s Mental Health and Addictions Network
aiming at creating treatment pathways for women
across various programs.

RESEARCH
Research into the causes of and treatments for children’s mental illness is a clear commitment of SickKids
Psychiatry, a major contributor to the academic enterprise in the Department of Psychiatry at the University
of Toronto. There are active programs in the genetics
of mental illness with a particular focus on attention
deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and obsessive
compulsive disorder (OCD). Researchers in this area
play a major role in local, national and international
collaborative efforts to elucidate the genetics of these
conditions.
Child psychiatry, like other
aspects of medicine, is

EDUCATION
SickKids Psychiatry is involved in teaching at the undergraduate, graduate, postgraduate, and post-doctoral
levels in Psychiatry and Psychology as well as residents
in Paediatrics. Seminars and clinical teaching endeavors are highly rated by medical students, residents and
observers in training.
At the undergraduate level, faculty lead didactic group
seminars on child and adolescent Anxiety Disorders,
Neurobehavioral Disorders, and Eating Disorders in
the University of Toronto’s medical school clerkship
curriculum and is actively engaged in the clinical
teaching of third year clerks as they move through
their Psychiatry rotation blocks. There are 24 clinical
sessions offered on a yearly basis in which 6-8 students
are in attendance per session. In addition, opportunities for elective medical students from across Canada
and internationally are offered. This past academic
year 20 students elected to participate in our program,
rating the experience very highly.
SickKids Psychiatry is also very active in teaching
at the Postgraduate level. Core psychiatry residents
(completing their 6 month mandatory rotation in child
and adolescent psychiatry) as well as the career residents (residents planning to develop a career in child
psychiatry) rotate through our department. Members
from our department are also actively involved in the
teaching of core and career didactic seminars. Our
psychopharmacology course developed for residents is
a unique course in the University of Toronto educa-

tional system; the model for this course was presented
at a national meeting and has elicited interest both
nationally and internationally.
SickKids Psychiatry is an important site for advance
clinical and research training within the Department
of Psychiatry. Graduates in Psychiatry or Psychology
participate in a period of several additional years of rigorous training under the direct supervision of members
of our Department. These trainees, who are active in
neuroimaging, genetics, developmental psychopathology and treatment outcome research, represent the
future leaders in academic child psychiatry in Canada.

The Psychiatric Emergency Service provides crisis
management and psychiatric assessment and treatment.
It consists of psychiatric assessment, triage and brief
treatment; an interdisciplinary Crisis Service; a threebed Crisis Stabilization Unit and a Mobile Crisis
Intervention Team. It is a highly rated departmental
training site. Roughly 3% of emergency patients
are assessed by the Psychiatric Emergency Service
and roughly 28% of patients seen by the Service are
admitted to hospital.
The 33 bed Inpatient Service continues to be efficient
and effective. This service deals with individuals with
complex care needs. More patients with psychotic
disorders are admitted and discharged than at any
other inpatient unit in Toronto. There were roughly
550 discharges this year and average length of stay was
21 days. The Inpatient Service emphasizes general
psychiatry and also provides expertise in addiction
psychiatry, HIV-related disorders and severe and
persistent mental illness. Four beds are available for
clients of the assertive community treatment team.
CONTACT is an assertive community treatment
team. It was the first team established in a general

a strong academic unit and has recruited several
fellows. The unit includes a research associate and
a research consultant. Sean Rourke, Mark Halman
and Julie Maggi direct research in HIV psychiatry
and neuropsychology. Areas of interest include mood
and cognitive disorders, treatment adherence and
rehabilitation and international capacity building.
Sean’s neurobehavioural research unit focuses on the
interface between brain and behavior in several key
areas. As well, Sean directs an extensive array of
research activities in his role as executive and scientific
director of the Ontario HIV Treatment Network.
In addition, several evaluative intervention studies
are underway as are a number of studies addressing
the health, mental health and addiction treatment

Significant Developments
In December 2010, Dr. D. Wasylenki completed
his term as Psychiatrist-in-Chief. I served as Acting
Psychiatrist-in-Chief from January to June 2011. In
my acting role, I would like to highlight some of the
significant developments over the last 12 months during
this time of transition. The list is not meant to be
exhaustive but will report on some ongoing and new
developments in the Mental Health Service.
The evolution of our outstanding Psychiatric
Emergency Service (PES) continues. A full proposal

Emergency Department has been developed, discussed
with senior management at St. Michael’s and submitted
to the Toronto Central LHIN. Also over the past five
years staff of the PES has taken key leadership positions
in the University of Toronto’s General Psychiatry
Division and the Mental Health and Addiction
Emergency Department Alliance. Ian Dawe, Medical
Director of the PES and also the first Medical Director
of the ED Alliance, has left St. Michael’s Hospital
to become the Physician-in-Chief at Ontario Shores
Centre for Mental Health Sciences (Ontario Shores).
We wish Ian well in this new important role.
The Inpatient Service continues to work on several
important initiatives over the last year. These
include a Medication Reconciliation Project, the
implementation of a new restraint and falls policy, the
introduction of a detailed assessment and reporting
system (OMHRS-RAI), the ongoing implementation
of a computerized practitioner order entry system and
the acquisition of a personal alarm system for our high
acuity areas.
As noted, the Community Mental Health Service
(CMHS) provides an array of direct and indirect
services, largely in the community. Recently
discussions have been held with two community-based
housing projects with regard to partnership agreements
with the Mental Health Service. LOFT Community
Housing has proposed the development of a crisis
residence in partnership with the Mental Health
Service and a YWCA partnership will involve mental
health service medical and case management program
development support for 100 units of housing for
women with mental health problems.
The Medical Psychiatry Service, including a geriatric
psychiatry component, has evolved as an excellent
service delivery and educational program. The HIV
Psychiatry Service provides clinical consultation and
psychiatric management for HIV positive patients in
ambulatory, inpatient and community-based settings.
This year Dr. Mark Halman, Medical Director HIV

of his leadership in HIV Psychiatry education.
With regard to education, the service provides
education for undergraduate and postgraduate
medical trainees and students from various mental
health disciplines as well as programs of continuing
education. In the area of education one of the most
remarkable features of the St. Michael’s Mental Health
Service has been the strong commitment to education
and scholarship among nursing and health disciplines
personnel. Initiatives include nursing excellence grant
support, a nursing fellowship program and the hosting
of annual conferences for the RNAO Mental Health

University health network (UHN)
This healthcare network is comprised of Toronto General Hospital, Tonto Western Hospital and
Prince Margaret Hospital.
CLINICAL AND TEACHING UNITS
The Department of Psychiatry at UHN delivers
clinical and academic services at Toronto General
Hospital (TGH), Toronto Western Hospital (TWH)
and Princess Margaret Hospital (PMH). In July 2011,
Toronto Rehab Institute (TR) officially became
the fourth major partner within UHN. There are
three Divisions in Psychiatry – Neurosciences and
Psychiatry; Community and Special Programs in
Mental Health and Addictions and Medical Psychiatry
and Psychosocial Oncology.
Neurosciences and Psychiatry
This Division incorporates Neuropsychiatry, Mood
Disorders and Geriatric Psychiatry. The unifying
themes are Cognition, Mood, and Performance,
recognising the fact that these three dimensions are
affected across a broad range of neurological and
neuropsychiatric disorders. The Division is closely
allied with the UHN Krembil Neurosciences Program
at TWH with foci in Movement Disorders, Epilepsy,
Stroke, Neurodegenerative Disorders, Neuroimaging,
and Neurostimulation.
The Mood Disorders Psychopharmacology Unit and
Geriatric Psychiatry provide clinical care, research and
education in mood disorders across the adult life span,
with a focus on psychopharmacology. In addition to
electroconvulsive therapy and DBS, neurostimulation
initiatives have expanded to include guided rTMS.
The UHN MRI Guided rTMS Clinic opened in
2011 and has funding to evaluate rTMS in postnatal
depression and other depressed groups. The team
has developed initiatives in deep brain stimulation
(DBS) for treatment-resistant depression and
obsessive-compulsive disorder in collaboration with
Neurosurgery.
100
Geriatric Psychiatry also provides clinical care and
education in the area of cognitive disorders. The
Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) Clinic, which to date has
focused on outpatient consultation and management,
is expanding its focus to ABI rehabilitation through
linkage with the ABI program at TR. The Sleep and
Alertness Clinic provides training in sleep medicine
and has collaborative links with the Departments of
Anaesthesia and Ophthalmology. The Tourette’s Clinic
is a joint initiative between TWH and Youthdale, with
strong academic and service commitments.
Community and Special Programs in Mental
Health and Addictions
A wide range of community partnerships, outpatient
clinics, emergency and inpatient services affiliated
with the General Psychiatry Program are located at
TGH and TWH. These include addiction services
and primary care settings such as the Toronto
Urban Health Alliance, which provides educational
opportunities to experience the shared care model.
Additional outreach services to Addictions, Asian
Initiatives in Mental Health and the Mood Disorders
Association of Ontario were established in 2011.
The Asian Initiatives in Mental Health, Community
Mental Health, Portuguese Mental Health, Psychiatric
Emergency Service Unit and Urgent Care Clinics

Trauma Therapy Program
A number of initiatives are currently underway in
the program, including the Trauma and the Body
Group (PI Classen) and a Web-based support group for
women with gynecologic cancer and who are sexually
distressed (PI: Classen). The program also developed a
web-based support group for Type 2 diabetes patients
and successfully ran the first web-based group. Classen
co-facilitated with a nurse from Women’s Health in
Women’s Hands.
Dr. Classen, a faculty member in the TTP program,
has developed a web-based support group for women
with Type 2 diabetes and is working with other WCH
physicians, Drs. Julie Maggi and Nancy McCallum, to
develop a web-based support group for HIV-positive
women.
The keynote address at the Trauma-Informed Care
annual retreat sponsored by the Hamilton Addiction
& Mental Health Collaborative was delivered by Dr
Classen and she was an invited panelist for a keynote
panel on intergenerational repetition of abuse and
the role of dissociation at the 14th International
Conference on Violence, Abuse and Trauma in San
Diego. Dr. Classen and Anne Fourt were invited
speakers for the Ontario Hospital Association’s
conference on interprofessional care. The team
continues to help build the Women’s Mental Health

and Education Complex Care Clinic. Under the
new clinic, a patient with heart failure, depression,
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and diabetes,
for example, who is seeing a cardiologist, psychiatrist,
endocrinologist and respirologist could have her care
managed at the clinic. We are excited to be able to
offer this integrated care approach to both patients
and learners. Dr. Joanna Barlas, a fellowship trained
geriatric psychiatrist has also joined the general
Psychiatry team and offers expertise in this area to
WCH patients.
Education
Mental Health in Medicine has built a new
relationship with Oncology, particularly with the

Andreia Scalco, who has a fellowship in C/L and
previous experience in psycho oncology is leading
this endeavor. Dr. Adriana Carvalhal is working as
part of a team at both WCH and the community to
develop an HIV in Women program. Dr. Carvahal
has received 2 CIHR grants in the last year to
support her work in this population. We have are
now fully engaged in training core residents, both in
General Psychiatry (in partnership with Sunnybrook
Health Sciences Centre) and at the PGY1 level in CL
psychiatry (in partnership with Toronto Rehabilitation
Institute). We continue to host senior residents in both
CL and Shared Care. The WMHP continues to be a popular program for
residents interested in learning about women’s mental
health. During the 2010-2011 academic year the
WMHP had several senior residents doing electives
in reproductive mental health, trauma therapy and
relational psychotherapy, and collaborative care
including with Women’s Health and Women’s Hands,
a community health centre. In addition to offering
many electives and senior selectives the WMHP at
WCH is a core site for general psychiatry (PGY-2),
consultation-liaison psychiatry (PGY-1 and -4), and
collaborative care (PGY-4 and -5) training. Over the course of the 2011-2012 academic year
the WMHP looks forward to hosting more than a
dozen residents across programs for core and selective
rotations. The WMHP continues to expand its
senior selective offerings, including in cross-cultural
psychiatry, child psychiatry and parenting, and
collaborative care with our community partners

Addiction services span both the departments of
Family Medicine and Psychiatry but are integrated
with multiple programs throughout the hospital.
Addiction services include emergency addiction crisis
workers, addiction medicine consultation-liaison
service, addiction medicine physicians and an extensive
harm reduction program. In addition, SJHC is the
only hospital in Ontario with a residential withdrawal
management service on its campus.
Community input is formally organized through
a perpetual Mental Health and Addictions
Population Panel that is co-chaired by a person
with lived experience and community organization
representative. Representation on the population
panel is provided by an extensive array of community
agencies and persons with lived experience.
Developments and Achievements
The commitment to post-graduate education continues
to grow. Formal university appointments were granted
to 6 additional staff including Drs.Velu Siva, David
Gotlib, Andrew Gotowiec, Mark Filipczuk, Ginny
Duff, and Richard Stall. Post-graduate education
continues to include adult general psychiatry rotations
and both junior and senior Child and Adolescent
psychiatry rotations. In addition, the department is
currently developing additional post-graduate training
opportunities in both collaborative care and health
systems.
Hospital accreditors publically praised the unique
information technology system integrating EPT with
the hospital and its contribution to improving patient
flow. The latter system is an ‘electronic white board’
and was designed and developed in-house by the Dr.
David Gotlib. In addition, Dr. Gotlib successfully
submitted a manuscript to the journal, Psychiatric
Services, entitled, “A Low-cost Intranet-based System
for Sharing Patient Information Across Departments”.
The manuscript was co-authored with the patient care
manager in charge of the EPT – Ms. Shirley Pullan.

The department has
articulated a new strategic
plan of creating an integrated
network with community
mental health and primary
care services within its
geographical area. The goal
is to serve its population
using an organized “web” that
clearly fosters the sharing of
patients’ care along the entire
continuum of community and
hospital based care, including
primary care.

We have developed collaborative care programs with

Villages CHC – Dundas Site. In partnership with the
Centre for Addictions and Mental Health and with
the support of new funding from the Toronto Central
LHIN, psychiatrists now provide direct consultations
with both patients and staff on-site at the CHC offices.
In addition, the department of psychiatry facilitated
an agreement between CAMH and SJHC to provide
CAMH patients with organized access to Internal
Medicine consultations at SJHC in order to support
CAMH in their management of the their patients’
medical needs.
connecting with a group of frequent users of SJHC
Emergency Department and were able to collect and
analyze a large amount of data on this frequent user
group. The resultant findings were extremely useful
and contributed to expand funding for a larger project
being conducted through the ED Alliance to study
frequent users across multiple hospital emergency
departments in the TCLHIN.
Dr. Kelly Driver has developed and implemented a
strategy to standardize Suicide Risk Assessment across
all services and staff in the department of psychiatry.
Dr. Rosemary Meier has retired as our full-time
geriatric psychiatrist and we want to thank her for her
years of service and leadership.

In respect to community mental health organizations,
SJHC Department of Psychiatry has developed
new partnerships with FAME, COPA, CRCT,
RECONNECT and PARC. These partnerships
are just the beginning of what is planned to be one
of the most extensively organized mental health and
addictions “web” of any community in the world.
The goal is to ensure that where ever a patient lands,
the service or provider is a part of the web, and every
provider has immediate and easy access to every other
part of the web to ensure continuity of care for the
patient.
A mental health emergency department frequent users
project was funded by the TCLHIN. Abe Margel,

EVENTS AND EDUCATIONAL ACHIEVEMENTS
We continue to provide core training in intellectual
disabilities to medical clerks, residents and fellows
in psychiatry, developmental paediatrics and family
medicine and other health trainees. The medical
subspecialties represented at SPC working within multidisciplinary teams, permit a broad range of specialist

clinical exposure for such trainees. Short and long
term electives and selectives were offered throughout
the year by SPC faculty. End of year evaluations
by the developmental pediatric fellows of the new
longitudinal experience at SPC focusing on children
and youth presenting with mental health, emotional
and behavioural concerns, were very positive; this
experience will continue into its second year building
on feedback received. A new service for children with
complex behavioural and medical presentations was
piloted (Behavioural Medical Assessment of Complex
Kids and their Environment – BMAKE). This service
offers home and school based assessments and interventions to children up to 18 yrs presenting with complex
challenging (distressed) behaviours by a team that
includes specialist medical (developmental pediatrics
and psychiatry), Behaviour, SLP and OT expertise.
Through collaboration within
the ATN, Surrey Place
Centre is currently involved
in 4 research projects
funded by the American
Health Resources Service
Administration (HRSA) for
the Autism Intervention
Research Network for Physical
Disorders.
Together with the Dual Diagnosis Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (DD CAMH) faculty, core
curriculum teaching in ID psychiatry is available for
psychiatry residents during their first, second and third
residency years. In the first year the focus is on ID in
the Emergency Room; in the second there is muti
disciplinary clinical teaching at SPC supported by
general seminars on ID and ASD; in the third year the
focus is on children with ID, and understanding the
complex aetiologies of psychotic-type presentations in
children and adults with ID, with and without ASD.
This year we were delighted to welcome Dr Stephanie
Amis, Clinical Research Fellow to this teaching.
The Day in Developmental Disabilities for third year
medical clerks continues to focus on health vulnerabilities, services, communication, attitudes, and
other issues pertinent to optimal health care for this
population. An interdisciplinary teaching team of SPC
staff, together with self advocates (persons with ID)
and their families participate in the teaching. Through
these partnerships trainees learn about life span approaches as well as the vital importance of continuity
and integration of care for this client group.

Two medical students who spent electives with us were
successful in their applications to join the University
of Toronto, Psychiatry Residency Program. We were
also delighted to provide an elective experience to a
third year nursing student from the UK, as well as host
visiting psychiatrists from Singapore setting up a new
dual diagnosis service in their country.
Psychological therapies are increasingly being recognized as successful intervention for people with ID
with emotional problems or presenting with distressed
(challenging) behaviours; our psychiatry team is
training with colleagues in the UK in some of these
therapies: Intensive Interaction (e.g., http://www.
phoebecaldwell.co.uk ); Books beyond Words http://
www.rcpsych.ac.uk/publications/booksbeyondwords/
aboutbbw.aspx ) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing), a recommended therapy for
trauma also effective with people with ID many of
whom have suffered trauma.
In the fourth year of the 5-Year Developmental Disabilities Primary Health Care Initiative (DDPCI) Plan
(spear headed by Dr William Sullivan Family Medicine specialist and supported by the Ontario Ministry
of Community and Social Services, Ministry of Health
and Long-Term Care, and Surrey Place Centre), some
significant milestones were attained: The Canadian
Consensus Guidelines were updated and published
(http://www.surreyplace.on.ca/Clinical-Programs/
Medical-Services/Pages/PrimaryCare.aspx ).
Tools to implement these Guidelines were published
and distributed to family physicians across Canada
and Family Medicine residents in Ontario and made
available online. Advances were made in continuing education by launching the first module on ID
in the Foundation for Medical Practice Education’s
PBSGL program for family physicians and Family
Medicine residents, and by establishing a series of
rounds in the Clinical Support Network. The DDPCI
sought successfully to have the ID Special Interest
Group recognized as a program within the College
118
of Family Physicians of Canada, and the primary care
of people with ID as an objective of the Canadian
medical curriculum. This initiative focuses both on
the physical and mental health of people with ID and
the milestones attained so far can be anticipated to
have a long-term positive impact on building capacity
of physicians to provide primary physical and mental
health care to adults with ID.
