PSYCHIATRIC MEDICATION SERVICES

The Psychiatric Services Team provides specialty care for individuals who have been referred by their Polk County Behavioral Health Therapist. Services begin with an evaluation that includes a physical examination, diagnostic testing, and an interview to gather information and history of the presenting problems. When conditions support the need for medication and the individual agrees, the psychiatric services team will provide on-going medication management.

Polk County Behavioral Health is excited to offer the option of Telepsychiatry to our clients. This service allows for quicker access and quality services provided remotely by video telecommunication technology.

Members of the Psychiatric Services Team actively participate in the EASA and ACT programs, lending their expertise in the area of psychiatry.
