CAMH Case Analysis
In the summer of 2019, the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH), Canada’s largest mental health teaching hospital found itself at the center of a high-profile media crisis. Three patients had absconded from care at its forensic mental health unit, with–notably–one patient leaving the country and another patient committing the first violent crime in over a decade while on a day pass in the community. The events led to public concern from the media, and the government, putting CAMH’s reputation at risk. Much of the concern manifested through stigmatizing statements due to a common misunderstanding and ignorance toward mental health, especially in the forensic area. CAMH’s Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Catherine Zahn, and her team must decide how they will address the crisis both externally with the public and internally in their own organization.
You are the senior consultant with ACES Consulting Group and have researched the crisis thoroughly. Create a document that outlines how CAMH can advocate for and meet the needs of its forensic mental health patients, while also being careful to not alienate any stakeholders.
