As a patient I feel excluded about decisions being made about my mental health care. I recently was referred to Shawpark to be told that they were not accepting the referral and recommend that I go to GAMH.
I do not even know the names of the mental health professionals who are making these decisions...I have not even been assessed by them face to face.
Communication is conducted mainly between health professionals and very little information or explanation for their decisions is given to me.
Why are they recommending that I go to GAMH and what support is GAMH going to give me?
Are there other support providers that could offer similar or the same support?
This is not the first experience I have had of Shawpark Resource Centre poor practices and procedures. I had hoped that things would have improved by now, but unfortunately in my experience they have not.
