Children�s Mental Health Psychiatric Medical Services

Program Description

The Medical Services Program offers psychiatric services for youth needing psychiatric intervention through pharmacological treatment to assist with accomplishment of their resiliency goals, improving their functioning and/or preventing further deterioration of their mental status. 

A team of professionals including psychiatrists and advanced registered nurse practitioners (ARNPs) offer psychiatric evaluation, medication monitoring and management, along with psycho-education to children with moderate to severe psychiatric and co-occurring mental health and substance abuse (MH/SA) disorders. Doctors and ARNPs are supported by nurses and psychiatric technicians who assist with many other duties, such as (but not limited to): treatment planning, securing patient assistance for prescriptions, completing authorizations for release of information, obtaining prior authorization for medications and contacting other providers.
