Psychiatrist Visits and/or Telehealth

ltcswi

I was wondering if anyone has found psychiatrists that will come to your building or do telehealth.  We have a mental health nurse practitioner that makes rounds but PASRR requires a psychiatrist and report a nurse practitioner is not sufficient. Please let me know.  I have tried several telehealth services but they all have nurse practitioners.

I am attaching the contact information for Doug Wilson (Integrated Health Partners, 855-270-3625). The agency he works for provides telepsychiatry in Iowa and I have heard that providers and clients have had good experiences with this service. I do not know if they provide services in other states. Sylvia Mork, Prairie View Management, Fayette

I asked our director about the question from Marcia Wells and getting the PASARR eval done. Here was his answer. I have clarified the role of the providers at our office he references. And Dr. Bigelow has his psychologist doctorate. I don't think only psychiatrists can do level 11 PASRR evaluations. Mark, Dianna (both are ARNP BC psychiatric prescribers at our office), Nancy (LISW at our office) and I can do them because we are specialists. Of course, only I can do the IQ testing to determine ID. However, I know that many providers do not like to do them so there is likely a shortage of those that will come to NF to complete. I would search for telemedicine…
