Members of the military, veterans, and first responders (including police officers, fire fighters, and paramedics) face some of the most extreme situations on the job.
As a result, they are more likely to experience addiction and mental health disorders, such as depression and PTSD.

Who is this program right for?
When we are facing a medical emergency, paramedics are on the scene within minutes to help save lives. Yet, their work often takes a toll on their own health: 30.5% report stress, 40% anxiety, and 26.7% depression.3
Police officers bear witness to some of the most horrifying scenes, while putting themselves in the line of fire as well. In Canada, 36.7% of police officers report one or more mental health disorders.4
Members struggling with their mental health or addiction have often felt that they had to choose between inpatient treatment and their responsibilities at work and at home.
EHN Online’s Intensive Outpatient Programs help bridge the gap between the attention of inpatient treatment and the freedom of outpatient options. They offer virtual, in-home treatment, so members are able to maintain commitments to both work and family.
