Veterans Affairs Canada Evaluation of the Residential Treatment Clinic for Operational Stress Injuries (OSI) - Ste. Anne's Hospital - October 2011
The purpose of this evaluation is to assess both the relevancy and performance of the Residential Treatment Clinic for Operational Stress Injuries (RTCOSI - hereinafter referred to as the RTC) at Ste. Anne's Hospital. The recent commencement of the RTC's operation in February 2010, has limited the assessment of performance to the immediate outcome of program reach.
Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC) defines an operational stress injury (OSI) as any persistent psychological difficulty resulting from operational duties performed while serving in the Canadian military or executing duties serving as a member of the RCMP. Psychological difficulties may include, for example, a diagnosis of post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), major depression, alcohol/substance abuse, chronic pain, or various anxiety disorders.
