At the end of the course, we discussed where to get help for both mental and physical health. Choose the FALSE statement. Select one:
a. You can get help anywhere you like, but you must pay out of pocket for the consultation. It is probably too expensive for you, so it is best to bring medication and home remedies from home, and avoid going to the doctor unless you think you may die.
b. There are three levels of care for physical health problems. There are family doctors and walk in clinics for non-urgent care and Urgent care centers in a few hospitals around the city. One of them is Victoria hospital, close to The University of Manitoba. This is where you would go if it is a non-life threatening situation, but you can’t wait a few days to get help. The third level of care is urgent because you have symptoms that you fear may indicate a life threatening problem. In urgent situations you would go to one of three hospitals. They have emergencies.
c. You can access a counselor at the UM counseling services, My SSP app, and the Crisis Center on Bannatyne Avenue for an emergency. The counselling services at the UM and my SSP app are accessible to you even though you are not in Winnipeg yet. With MY SSP app you can speak to a trained professional in your language if you prefer.
