Information for youth, caregivers and educators

Some CHEO clinics, services and programs allow youth to self-refer, or their caregivers and educators to make a referral on their behalf.

View our Clinic, Services and Programs directory to find the area you’re looking for. If self-referral is available for that clinic, service or program it will be mentioned on their page, along with instructions for how to submit your self-referral. If you have general questions about accessing services at CHEO, please contact us at 613-737-7600 or visit our directory.

Next time you’re sending a referral to CHEO, consider sending it via Ocean:
• It keeps you informed of referral and appointment status
• Referral forms are linked to referral criteria to make it easier to see what information is being requested
• It’s integrated with many EMRs, saving time when sharing information
