What you should know about COVID-19
(COrona VIrus Disease 2019)
Dear Patients,
We have been tracking the COVID-19, originally known as 2019-nCoV situation daily and we will continue to do so. With the disease now established in the US, and with spring break and major holidays coming up shortly, we will continue to follow the orders of the local and national officials.
We need to make prudent choices to protect the health of our patients, staff, and our own community and the broader communities we belong to, without creating unnecessary disruptions to our patients.
These guidelines represent our best judgment, at this moment, about practical steps we at Beaumont Psychiatric Clinic are taking:
I assure you that my team and I will continue to take all measures necessary to protect our patients, our team and our community against the spread of COVID-19.
Sincerely,
Jason Mensah, DO, MBA
Psychiatric Evaluation
A Psychiatric evaluation gives the doctor the information necessary to diagnose any behavioral, emotional, or developmental disorders. They will use the things they learn to form a treatment plan which may include psychiatry, medication management or TMS therapy
Why Do I Need a Psychiatric Evaluation Appointment?
A psychiatric evaluation helps your doctor form a diagnosis so they know how they can help you get the mental health treatment you need. It is normal to feel sad, stressed, or have a hard time coping. People often turn to mental health treatment when they have:
- Relationship problems
- Mood swings
- Eating disorders
- Difficulty with work or school
- Anxiety
- Feeling fearful often
- Compulsive behaviors
Assessments for Accommodations
When students need accommodations for standardized testing, they are usually asked to do a comprehensive psycho-educational evaluation. This evaluation includes interviews with the student, school records, and testing of current abilities. We can perform these evaluations for you and help you understand your results.
