Referral Form
The Referral Flow Process
Once a referral is received:
- An intake appointment is scheduled with a Counsellor. Consents are signed.
- Sessions are scheduled based on the client's needs, treatment plan and agreed upon goals.
- When consents are available, NOSP Counsellors will participate in and/or lead case conferences when and where appropriate.
- Treatment progress is reviewed regularly to ensure evidence of improvement – this may or may not impact treatment plan alterations.
Hospital Referrals & Calls
When NOSP receives a referral or call from the Hospital, NOSP will do its best to have a Counsellor meet with the client in hospital as soon as possible. Initial assessment, safety and follow-up plans are created with client (and family depending on age) as well as follow-up support and ongoing services.
