Given the continued high rates of COVID-19 infection across the geographic areas we serve, ErinoakKids is currently providing on-site services by appointment only, in cases identified as urgent. All other services will be offered virtually, when and as appropriate.

At this time, client, family and staff safety is our highest priority. We look forward to expanding the availability of all services on our sites when it is safer to do so, and continue to monitor the data and seek guidance from Public Health and our Infection Control Specialists in this matter. Please rest assured that if you have an appointment booked with us that requires rescheduling, our staff will be in contact with you. Meantime, please monitor this site regularly for updates on the availability of on-site services. Stay well and stay safe.

ErinoakKids will be closed for the holidays beginning Thursday, December 24, 2020 at 3:00 p.m.

We will resume services on Monday, January 4, 2021 at 8:00 a.m. but please note, that in alignment with the province-wide restrictions announced by the Government of Ontario,  ErinoakKids sites will be closed for in person appointments the week of January 4 to 8, 2021, with the exception of urgent medical, rehabilitation and audiology appointments.

Wherever possible, virtual services will be provided, beginning Monday, January 4, 2021.
 

Until further notice, autism services offered through our Brampton site will continue to be provided virtually (only). This is a continuation of measures announced December 1, in order to maximize the health and safety of clients, families and staff. We will continue to monitor the situation. Any updates, including details of when we are able to return to in person autism services at our Brampton location, will be posted on our website as soon as the information is available.

We encourage parents to consider trying one of the virtual autism service packages we offer.

Please be advised that effective immediately, clients accessing autism services who attend the Brampton site will be provided with these services virtually (only). Given the intensity, length and continuous close contact requirement of autism therapy sessions, a temporary pause on in-person services has been implemented, as an additional measure, to maximize the safety of clients, families and staff at a time of high levels of COVID-19 in the Brampton area. This pause will be in effect for the month of December. We will continue to monitor the situation and communicate with families, in the hope that by January 2021 case levels have stabilized to the point that on site autism services can be re-instituted at Brampton. Meantime, we encourage parents to take advantage of the availability of high quality, virtual services for their children. Stay safe and be well, everyone.

MISSISSAUGA – November 24, 2020 – ErinoakKids Centre for Treatment and Development has partnered with Superfan Nav Bhatia to raise awareness and understanding of autism support services available to children and their families. Superfan Nav Bhatia, South-Asian Canadian entrepreneur, was sincerely inspired by the warmth and quality of services provided at ErinoakKids during his visits to two Erinoakkids sites earlier this year. Recognizing the lack of knowledge and conversations about autism care that may exist in communities in need of such supports, he encourages families to have honest conversations and be open to seeking the right support to help their children achieve their fullest potential.
