Ottawa Now - Can A.I. help reduce E.R. mental health visits?

March 3, 2026

Can today’s A.I. help reduce the number of E.R. mental health visits? Researchers at CHEO are looking into it. According to hospital officials, CHEO has a higher rate of emergency visits for mental health needs than any other comparable pediatric institution in Canada. Not only that, a high number of those patients are returning to the E.R. within a six-month period. Kristy Cameron digs deeper with Dr. Kathleen Pajer on today’s Ottawa Now. She is the Director of the CHEO Research Institute’s Precision Child and Youth Mental Health Collaboratory.
