The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in unprecedented and often devastating new circumstances for healthcare providers (HCPs), leading to an increased need for mental health prevention and early interventions efforts to support this critical workforce. Hommage aux soins de santé : Merci pour votre service est un plan de surveillance continue et de mobilisation des connaissances visant à répondre aux besoins des professionnels de la santé canadiens touchés par cette période difficile.
