The Sun Life Financial Chair in Adolescent Mental Health is currently working to develop educational resources to address medications used to treat mental disorders in young people.
A collaborative project between the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO) and the Sun Life Financial Chair in Adolescent Mental Health, Med Ed is an educational resource that provides information and tools to young people who take medication for mental illness or mental symptoms. It can also be used by parents, caregivers, guardians, people working in facilities (e.g. group homes, residential or day treatment programs), teachers, and health care providers. The Med Ed booklet and passport allows patients to track questions, symptoms, activities, side effects, medications, and medical appointments.
