We provide follow-up treatment and support for patients discharged from North Bay Psychiatric Hospital. We provide community mental health services to the North Bay area. We also accept referrals for individuals from other areas of Northeastern Ontario when an essential service is not available in their locale. Each patient is assigned a primary clinician, generally the person with whom the patient is most often in contact. Each patient s progress is reviewed regularly by our team of professionals who determine treatment plans and make periodic adjustments.
Medication is prescribed for many of our patients.
The Dr. Claude J. Ranger Mental Health Clinic accepts direct referrals from medical practitioners. We also take pride in the growing number of joint ventures that we have with other community agencies. Direct referrals are accepted from the Nipissing Crisis Intervention Program, St. Joseph s Treatment Centre, Community Counselling Centre of Nipissing, the Adult Community Mental Health Case Management Program, and Canadore College and Nipissing University Student Counselling Services. We accept referrals for individuals who are sixteen years of age or older. Referrals are usually by appointment.
