Psychiatric Services

Psychiatric services are provided at all CWCMH offices by board certified or board eligible psychiatrists, advanced registered nurse practitioners and physician assistants. CWCMH medical staff include specialists who work with children, adolescents, adults, and senior adults. Initial psychiatric evaluations assist in determining diagnosis, developing treatment plans, and, if necessary, determining appropriate medication for each client. During follow-up visits, psychiatrists evaluate treatment progress, and monitor symptoms and prescribed medications. CWCMH psychiatrists maintain privileges at local hospitals and can arrange for and provide inpatient care or consultation.
