This presentation will explore what happens when individuals with developmental disabilities are in crisis and have to visit their hospital emergency department. What leads to these visits, how can they be prevented, and what can we do to be better prepared when they happen? Ontario's health care access research in developmental disabilities program has been studying these issues and working closely with hospitals, families, and policy makers to develop solutions. Please join us to learn more about ways to be better prepared in emergency situations.
