In brief

Early Psychosis Intervention (EPI) is an evidence-based, recovery-focused care model. In 2011, the Ontario Ministry of Health released as set of standards for EPI Program based on international guidelines and created a Standards Implementation Steering Committee to support system implementation and improvement.

In this Research Report Round-up we provide a summary of the report, “Implementation of Early Psychosis Intervention Program Standards in Ontario: Results of a Provincial Survey”.

This report presents the results of a survey of EPI programs that the Steering Committee carried out to understand current service delivery in relation to the new standards. The report’s focus is on the 52 program sites that answered the survey and deliver care to young people with first episode psychosis.
