Medication management is the process of helping people with mental illness use their medication safely and effectively. It is a core service provided by psychiatric mental health provider (psychiatrist, psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner), who are medical professionals with specialized training in diagnosing and treating mental illnesses. The primary focus of medication management is to assess, monitor, and manage medications in order to optimize a patient’s well-being. Mental health providers typically start the medication management process with a detailed review of the patient’s history and current medications, as well as any lifestyle or lifestyle factors that may affect the effectiveness of the medications. The psychiatric mental health providers will then create a personalized medication plan based on their assessment of the patient and the goals they hope to achieve.
The medication plan will likely include regular reviews, either face-to-face, virtual or over the phone, in order to monitor the patient’s progress. Medication management is an important service offered by mental health providers to help ensure that patients are safely and effectively using their medications to improve their mental health and well-being.
