Weโre proud to be part of the Extensive Needs Service (ENS) โ a first-of-its-kind partnership providing wraparound care for children with urgent and complex needs, and their families across Ontario โ including right here in our community.
Thanks to annualized funding from the Ontario government โ especially the Ministries of Health and Children, Community and Social Services โ and in collaboration with McMaster Children's Hospital, Holland Bloorview, CHEO, and 30+ partners, this service can continue to support approximately 1,100 children and families each year.
Early outcomes are showing improved child health, reduced family stress, and fewer hospital and emergency visits โ proof of whatโs possible when we wrap care seamlessly around the whole child and their family.
Weโre proud to be part of this integrated, inclusive and innovative model of care. โค๏ธ
