The Royal Ottawa Health Care Group (ROHCG) is committed to serving the mental health needs of patients and families across Eastern Ontario. We are also dedicated to exploring new approaches to mental health treatment through leading-edge research and education. The ROHCG is comprised of the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre, the Brockville Mental Health Centre, the University of Ottawa Institute of Mental Health Research, Royal Ottawa Place and the Royal Ottawa Foundation for Mental Health.
Clinicians at the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre and the Brockville Mental Health Centre work with their partners throughout the health-care system to ensure that patients have timely access to specialized psychiatric services and that treatment is tailored to individual patient needs. Each program provides services that may include inpatient, outpatient, partial hospitalization, day hospital, assertive community treatment, outreach and psychiatric rehabilitation.
The Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre is a specialized mental health facility for residents of communities across Eastern Ontario. Being a specialized or ‘tertiary’ centre means that the programs at the facility on Carling Avenue in Ottawa are aimed at treating people with complex and serious mental illnesses which are often resistant to conventional treatments.
