Assessment & Evaluation

Learn about the movement for QI in healthcare settings, the Model for Improvement and how applying QI tools have enhanced community-based mental health and addictions supports in Ontario, such as projects to reduce wait times and no-shows for counselling services. The webinar concludes by reviewing some common quality issues impacting campus programs with a Q & A period on how institutions may apply QI tools in their setting.

This interactive session provided participants with a brief overview of assessment and evaluation trends in campus mental health. Panelists provided highlights of clinical and program evaluation outcomes (Sandra Yuen, University of Toronto), climate studies (Lina Di Genova, McGill University) and data from the University of Calgary’s campus-wide mental health strategy framework (Andrew Szeto). Participants were invited to engage in an assessment exercise to guide the Best Practices Network’s next steps!
