Medications play a critical role in the treatment of various mental health issues, especially those that are severe. The proper medication can reduce troublesome symptoms and significantly improve a patient’s quality of life. Medication management is a form of treatment that involves the initial evaluation of the patient’s need for psychotropic medications, the provision of a prescription, and ongoing medical monitoring related to the patient’s use of the psychotropic medicines by a qualified medical professional. This service requires a thorough review of prescribed medications and their possible side effects to create treatment plans and monitor their safety and efficacy. At this time, this service is available at Gratia Plena only by secure and private video telehealth.

Expectations

• Medical evaluation
• Medication monitoring routinely and as needed
