What is Exploring How to Enhance Care and Pathways Between the Emergency Department and Integrated Youth Services for Young People with Mental Health and Substance Use Concerns about?
## Background Integrated youth services (IYS) provide multidisciplinary care (including mental, physical, and social) prioritizing the needs of young people and their families. Despite a significant rise in emergency department (ED) visits by young Canadians with mental health and substance use (MHSU) concerns over the last decade, there remains a profound disconnect between EDs and MHSU integrated youth services. The first objective of this study was to better understand the assessment, treatment, and referral of young people (ages 12–24 years) presenting to the ED with MHSU concerns. The second objective was to explore how to improve the transition from the ED to IYS for young people with MHSU concerns. ## Methods We conducted semi-structured one-on-one video and phone interviews with stakeholders in British Columbia, Canada in the summer of 2020. Snowball sampling was utilized, and participants (__n =__ 26) were reached, including ED physicians (__n =__ 6), social workers (__n =__ 4), nurses (__n =__ 2), an occupational therapist (__n =__ 1); a counselor (__n =__ 1); staff/leadership in IYS organizations (__n =__ 4); mental health/family workers (__n =__ 3); peer support workers
