Pediatric Mental Health Telephone Triage and Advice

Enhance pediatric care with a telephone triage resource rooted in current AAP guidelines and evidence-informed recommendations. It outlines mental health challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse while addressing medication issues and providing guidance for diverse, vulnerable youth populations.

Support the mental and emotional well-being of your patients and families with this telephone traige resource based on current American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) policy and other evidence-informed recommendations.

Concerns related to mental and emotional health are common in the pediatric population and thus commonly encountered in pediatric practice. While mental health care, in the past, had been considered separately from physical health care and primarily in the purview of mental health specialists, increasingly, pediatric practices are implementing a more holistic approach, in which healthy mental development is an integral part of pediatric health care.
