The regional health board that oversees Batshaw Youth and Family Centres is launching an evaluation of the services offered to youth who are transferred from Nunavik to Montreal. The news comes months after CBC News revealed serious allegations regarding how Inuit children are treated once they arrive in the city. Review is part of 'continuous improvement approach,' CIUSSS saysLast year, there was a review of all the services provided by the CIUSSS, but this one will focus on those offered to children from Nunavik, Hachimi-Idrissi said. The review will look at the services offered, how services are accessed, waiting times and clinical practices. The idea, she said, is that after the children receive services are in Montreal, their return home would be seamless, complete with local follow up.
