INTREPID Lab est un centre de recherche et de création de programmes de services de santé axé sur la dépendance à la nicotine. Nous visons à synthétiser les connaissances existantes à ce sujet et à en découvrir de nouvelles, à valider des modes de traitement assistés par la technologie et à appliquer ces avancées à des programmes de santé via notre réseau composé de plus de 300 organismes partenaires fournissant des soins primaires en milieu communautaire. De plus, INTREPID Lab collabore avec des fournisseurs de technologie pour créer ses propres méthodes et protocoles à des fins de recherche ainsi que pour intégrer les données obtenues à des programmes de services de santé.

INTREPID Lab est à la recherche d’une coordonnatrice ou d’un coordonnateur bilingue à plein temps (contrat de un an) pour la prestation de séances d’accompagnement en santé dans le cadre d’une initiative de traitement destinée aux jeunes de l’Ontario qui font une consommation problématique de substances psychoactives (incluant le tabagisme et le vapotage), qui pratiquent le jeu compulsif ou qui font un usage problématique de la technologie. La personne sélectionnée relèvera de la gestionnaire de la Clinique de la dépendance à la nicotine et œuvrera en étroite collaboration avec une équipe de traitement interdisciplinaire ainsi qu’avec une équipe de projet. Son rôle principal consistera à offrir un accompagnement à des jeunes de 12 à 21 ans présentant des troubles liés à la consommation de substances psychoactives (incluant le tabagisme et le vapotage), au jeu compulsif et à l’utilisation de la technologie. L’accompagnement se fera par le biais d’une interface virtuelle, dans le cadre d’un modèle de soins collaboratifs. Les séances d’accompagnement, qui seront dispensées individuellement aux jeunes participants au programme, auront pour but de les aider à se fixer des objectifs liés à leurs comportements problématiques et à les atteindre en appliquant les principes de l’entretien motivationnel (EM) et de la thérapie cognitivo-comportementale (TCC).

La personne retenue sera également responsable du suivi, du triage et du traitement des aiguillages, de l’établissement des rendez-vous et de la documentation des progrès des participants. Les thèmes des séances seront adaptés aux besoins individuels. La coordonnatrice ou le coordonnateur œuvrera en collaboration avec une équipe interprofessionnelle de soins virtuels avec laquelle elle ou il tiendra des consultations hebdomadaires; elle ou il devra en outre diriger les participants à l’initiative vers les prestataires de soins ou les ressources appropriés ainsi qu’organiser des séances éducatives de groupe et les animer, en fonction des besoins. La personne retenue travaillera en collaboration avec une équipe interdisciplinaire de parties prenantes internes et externes - prestataires de soins, chercheurs et personnes ayant une expérience vécue de la dépendance -, et ce, afin de réaliser un ensemble de tâches liées au projet : analyse du contexte, élaboration de ressources documentaires, préparation de mises à jour de projets, rédaction d’articles, etc. Des tâches connexes pourraient lui être assignées, en fonction des besoins.

Les candidats doivent être sensibilisés aux principes d’équité, de diversité et d’inclusion dans le contexte clinique et dans celui de la recherche, et s’engager à faire preuve de respect, d’adhésion aux normes de déontologie, de sensibilité culturelle et d’attention aux pratiques requises dans le cadre de la recherche et de l’évaluation. La personne retenue appuiera un milieu de travail harmonieux, ouvert à la diversité, propice au travail d’équipe et conforme à l’ensemble des politiques et des exigences réglementaires et législatives en vigueur. La concertation avec les parties prenantes internes et externes est très importante pour ce poste.
