Psychiatrist's Recommendations

The psychiatrist will make a recommendation for treatment, such as therapy or psychotropic medication, after completing the psychiatric evaluation and making a diagnosis.

The medical consenter should be diligent while working with the medical provider to:

  • Get answers to questions about medication and therapy.
  • Find treatments that help the child get better.
  • Determine what treatment is in the best interest of the child.
