Toronto CAS leaders sound alarm on kids with complex needs

The emergency call to the children’s aid society came late on a weekday afternoon. An 11-year-old boy with complex special needs was ready to leave a Toronto hospital, but his parents were refusing to take him home.

Eight days earlier, the boy had been admitted while suffering a mental health crisis, his violent outbursts making him a risk to himself and his family. Now that he was stable, hospital staff had determined he no longer needed intensive care.
