Medication Management
Our care model is preventative and therapeutic in nature, consisting of direct supervision of various mental health issues to ensure the right medication is being used and to help reduce or eliminate symptoms effectively. Our team is deeply aware of your unique needs and works to increase the efficacy of your medication treatment.
Who Should Consider Medication Treatment?
Every individual and psychiatric medications react differently within their bodies brain chemistry. Our healthcare providers empower patients in understanding the risks medication can pose to their health, knowing what medication should be taken, and what dosage may benefit an individual the most while thoroughly addressing issues and offering a medication management plan.
Prescriber Details
Prescribers can offer details about your prescribed medications, including interactions with other medications, potential side effects, and other considerations that may affect recovery.
Ongoing Monitoring
Our medication management program involves evaluating your needs for psychotropic medications, followed by the provision of a prescription, and ongoing medical monitoring of the use of those medications.
Our Approach
We are conservative with the use of psychotropic medications and will conduct a thorough review of the possible side effects medication may have and which medication may fit your needs. We will closely monitor the effect the medication is having to help you achieve your desired outcome.
These appointments as well help understand the potential risks from mixing medications with foods or supplements for your personal safety but also to increase the effectiveness of the medication you have been prescribed. In addition, these appointments help you understand the role in managing your medications and how crucial it is for your recovery and overall mental health.
