Both you and your child will meet with the doctor or nurse practitioner who will perform an assessment and develop a behavioral health management plan for your child. Our providers may recommend additional counseling to best serve your child.
If you child is prescribed medication, we will schedulae a follow-up within 28 days to assess your child's progress and evaluate the effectivenss of the medication. Please call sooner than 28 days if you have any questions or concerns.
