Picture in BC 2010/11
 774,261 receiving services for mental
health issues
 703,298 by a family physician (FP)
 115,905 by a psychiatrist
 116,372 in a community mental health
centre
 21,048 in acute care
FP focus-best chance to affect most people early on

Underlying hypothesis
Local mental health clinic group
Noticed
•
SU, Bipolar, PTSD, OCD– most often missed in FP referra;s
FPs’ patients not fully engaged in care planning, treatment decisions

Mostly pills in docs’ repertoire, rarely skills
Knew

Time pressure and fee constraints

FPs self admit lack of undergraduate education in mental illness
Fear about not knowing what to do significant factor underlying
physician discomfort/lack of confidence in treating mental health
issues, and provider stigma- useful tools needed
3
Local Team Developed Training Tool
 CBIS (Cognitive Behavioural Interpersonal Skills) manual an
organized Assess/plan/provide skills tool - guideline based ****
 To enhance MH capacity /comfort for FPs within realistic FP time
constraints and fitting MSP fee codes
 To enhance client partnership and self management
 Formed core of BC provincial Practice Support Program (PSP)
Adult Mental Health Module

Stigma
AIDs literature – AIDs patients stigmatized
1. Stigma reduced with useful interventions to treat/manage
problems/illness **
A. Information
B. Coping skills acquisition
Mental Health patients stigmatized
1. Family Physicians (FPs) self report: lack training, feel
unprepared ***
2. If you feel unprepared, you might fear, avoid, turn away –
stigmatization

Stigma results in






less prevention
more crisis
more deterioration
more relapse
more fear
vicious circle
17
Major insight evolved as physicians became more knowledgeable and
comfortable/confident with the AMH training…..
And linking with the AIDs literature……
Realized -AMH training could lead to less avoidance and stigmatization of patients
struggling with mental health problems.
Recent Mental Health Commission data on Module has shown that CBIS/ASW
significantly decreased stigmatizing attitudes of physicians, residents after one
day training by 10%- largest finding to date.
