Enhancing community care options for Albertans continue to be a key priority for AHS. Our goal is to provide high-quality diverse community, home, and individual well-being as well as support the long-term mental health and wellness of patients and their families. To support this goal, Fort McMurray Addictions and Mental Health-Child & Youth department has an opportunity for a temporary Social Worker II position. The Child and Youth, Community Addictions and Mental Health program provides specialized assessment and treatment services to children, adolescents, and their families.
