Here is a current update on the situation:
Lack of Response from Minister of Mental Health: No update on planned actions is a significant problem, indicating a lack of urgency or potentially a bureaucratic delay.
Selkirk Mental Health's Response: While they are addressing the specific worker issue, the recommendation to call 911 for crisis situations instead of Mobile Crisis raises serious questions about the Mobile Crisis service's functionality and effectiveness. I ask "Why is mobile crisis even a service if they won't actually help" this highlights a critical systemic failure.
Lack of Communication from Health Sciences Centre (HSC) Manager: The lack of returned calls regarding Reese's stay in PY1 is unacceptable. It's crucial to address:
Potentially Being Assaulted: A serious allegation needs immediate investigation.
Discharge with a Large Quantity of Medication: Sending a patient home with 400 pills raises concerns about safety, adherence to medication protocols, and potential for misuse (intentional or unintentional).
Reese's Well-being: The core concern is Reese's mental health and ensuring his safety and access to appropriate care.
Bringing this to the parliament's attention I feel is going to be the only way anything is ever going to change. I would like to thank all current supporters and encourage you to share as much as possible I will keep you updated on the situation as soon as I hear more.
