  • Emergency department encounters’ impacts on First Nations members, families and communities

    Open AccessPatrick McLane, Lea Bill et al.ARTICLESocial Science & Medicine2026

    First Nations are subject to ongoing colonialism in Canada, including within healthcare. Emergency departments serve a gatekeeping function in healthcare as patients are assessed for immediate assistance, admission to further care or discharge from acute care. They are also among the care settings where racism is most reported. This study draws on accounts of emergency care provided by 41 First Nations community members, 2 non-Indigenous provider…

  • Take-home naloxone programs for suspected opioid overdose in community settings

    Open AccessAmina Moustaqim‐Barrette, Amina Moustaqim-Barrette et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2021

    Several recent systematic reviews address the effectiveness of take-home naloxone programs, naloxone dosing/route of administration, and naloxone provision models. Gaps remain in the evidence around evaluating cost-effectiveness, training parameters and strategies, and adverse events following naloxone administration. As THN programs continue to expand in response to opioid overdose deaths, this review will contribute to understanding the evidenc…

    Here, we report on findings from a 15-month follow-up of a school-based program called Empowering a Multimodal Pathway Toward Healthy Youth (EMPATHY). This was primarily intended to reduce suicidal thinking in pre-teens, adolescents, and youth students aged 11-18 in middle schools (Grades 6-8) and high SCHOOLS (Grades 9-12). It also aimed to reduce depression and anxiety. The EMPATHY multimodal program consisted of repeated data collection, ident…

  • Depression Outcomes in Adults Attending Family Practice Were Not Improved by Screening, Stepped-Care, or Online CBT during a 12-Week Study when Compared to Controls in a Randomized Trial

    Open AccessPeter H Silverstone, Katherine Rittenbach et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Psychiatry2017

    There is uncertainty regarding possible benefits of screening for depression in family practice, as well as the most effective treatment approach when depression is identified. Here, we examined whether screening patients for depression in primary care, and then treating them with different modalities, was better than treatment-as-usual (TAU) alone. Screening was carried out for depression using the 9-item Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9), wi…
