Prior to prescribing medications, appropriate consents are signed or court authorization is obtained. Medicated clients are initially reviewed face-to-face at least once a month to document response to medication, side effects, compliance and the appropriateness of continued medication. 185146 4582176 Outreach and Mental Health Promotion 126057 Vocational Education:The Clinic's Vocational Education Program serves adolescents and young adults ages 15-25 who have significant mental health problems, equipping them with essential skills and experiences to transition successfully to independent community life.
