www.oakvillebeaver.com · OAKVILLE BEAVER Wednesday, June 23, 2010 · 8 Coroner recommends Ontario Suicide Prevention Strategy Continued from page 3 would track and monitor all drugs dispensed in Ontario. It was pointed out such a system could aid researchers greatly in their research into drugrelated adverse events. Another suggestion called for the creation of a province-wide Suicide Prevention Strategy that would seek to enhance mental health and well-being of Ontarians, de-stigmatize mental health disorders, improve intervention and support for Ontarians affected by depression and substance abuse, improve intervention in the treatment of those who are at risk of suicide, increase research activities in Ontario with regard to suicide, suicidal behaviour and suicide prevention, inform and educate the media about strategies when reporting deaths due to suicide to prevent 'copy cat' suicides from occurring. Other suggestions called for the Canadian Medical Protective Association to encourage physicians to involve the families of children, adolescents and young adults when they are being treated with medications for mental disor- ders like anxiety and depression whenever possible. This will allow the patient and the family to be aware of the nature of the patients' disorder and the potential side effects of the medication they are taking. Some of the other recommendations put forward by the coroner dealt with doctors being required to report serious adverse drug events to Health Canada; weekly appointments during a patient's first month of taking an SSRI; stricter emphasis that prior to a youth being put on an SSRI they go through a thorough diagnostic consideration and evaluation, a physical examination, laboratory investigations where appropriate, a discussion with the patient's family (if possible) with respect to target symptoms and monitoring, and an inquiry and consideration of alcohol and substance abuse being confounders of the illness. The jury will consider these along with 26 other recommendations made by the Carlin family with respect to preventing deaths similar to Sara's in the future.

Protect your pool, protect your family Did you know that a permit is required for any pool depth that exceeds 2 feet? Before you install your new pool this summer, the Town of Oakville encourages you to learn about the town's Pool Enclosure By-law 2006-071 including fencing requirements and permit regulations. To reduce the risk of a potential drowning, residents are required to apply for a permit for all types of bodies of water where the depth capacity exceeds 60cm (2 ft), including above-ground, in-ground and inflatable pools, as well as backyard landscaping ponds and hot tubs - often overlooked as potential safety threats. All pools must be enclosed by a fence, restricted by a lockable gate and adhere to the appropriate setbacks from the property line. Residents who have enclosures do not need to renew their permit, however a new permit is required if they are altering or replacing their enclosure. 2.
