Through their mental health and addictions services, Brightshores Health System has launched a new Navigation Line whereby patients can speak with a navigator who can connect them to the program that best meets their individual needs.

The Navigation Line will be available from Monday to Friday, from 8:30am to 3:30pm.

"If you require mental health or addiction services, call the Navigation Line today and connect with our team," read a January 26 media release. "The navigator will direct callers to the appropriate resource."

The phone number is 519-376-3303.
