Early psychosis treatment at CAMH
Slaight Centre Early Intervention Service (SCEIS)
SCIES is a youth-friendly outpatient program for young people who are early in their recovery from a psychotic episode that provides an easily accessible, stigma-free model of care that meets their specific developmental needs.
SCEIS supports recovery through early assessment and the development of a comprehensive treatment plan that is patient- and family-centred and recovery-focused, aiming to improve daily functioning for patients. We also provide education and support to family members of patients receiving our services.
The program’s goal is to improve outcomes for young people with psychosis through early identification, intervention and treatment tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual, based on emerging best practices in clinical care and research.
Early psychosis research at CAMH
The Slaight Family Centre for Youth in Transition
Our unique integrated approach allows us to translate the latest clinical and scientific evidence into better intervention and recovery strategies, making a real difference in the lives of young people.
Our goal is to put more young people experiencing severe mental illness on a path to recovery through improved combinations of existing treatments, and through clinical research and education that leads to new treatments, improve early identification and access to care, and streamlines service delivery.
