Community Health Centres - Three Bridges Community Health Centre - West End Mental Health Team

Addictions / Substance Use and Mental Health - Adult

Provided by Vancouver Coastal Health

Mental Health Teams provide community-based assessment and treatment to adults who are diagnosed with a major mental illness and experiencing significant problems that interfere with their functioning in daily life.
The West End Mental Health Team is for adults aged 19 and above with moderate to severe mental health, substance use, and concurrent mental health and substance use disorders or conditions. These services support people who typically experience all three of the following:

  • Mental health symptoms (with limited response to treatment) and/or substance use or related behaviors that are problematic.
  • Significant functional difficulties with activities of daily living and/or significant risk to personal safety, housing, or the community due to their mental health and/or substance use disorder or condition.
  • Financial, structural, health and/or social barriers (e.g., marginalization, stigma, inadequate housing, poverty, etc.) or other vulnerability that limits access to or requires higher intensity support (e.g., case management and psychiatry, assertive engagement) than what is typically provided by family physicians, private pay services and other community supports.
This may include but does not require high emergency department use, frequent hospital admissions due to their mental health and/or substance use disorder or condition and/or conditions under the BC Mental Health Act.
If you have questions about whether these services are for you or your client, in some cases, people may be considered based on other factors.
The AAC is a central point of access for all team services. The AAC can also help identify other services that may support the client.Vancouver Coastal Health (VCH) Community Health Area: #1 "Vancouver City Centre," serving the West End, Downtown Core, and Fairview.
