P379 Impact of a mental health navigator for cystic fibrosis care in British Columbia

Abstract

Cystic Fibrosis (CF) Care British Columbia (CFCBC) serves the CF population by providing provincial leadership to support evidence-based, high-quality, accessible, and equitable care across the continuum. To address the priority of mental health, CFCBC developed a new CF psychosocial model of care, along with the addition of a mental health navigator to assist CF clinics. The purpose of the navigator is to strengthen connections between patients and existing community mental health services by providing tools and support for improving health outcomes.
