ADHD Care Plan
A care plan for CYSHCN includes all pertinent current and historical, medical, and social aspects of a child’s and family’s needs and goals, and identifies all members of the treatment management team involved in the child’s care.
For patients with ADHD, the plan outlines the therapeutic goals and actions to help control ADHD symptoms, including evidence-based behavioral/training interventions, medication, school services/classroom interventions, and patient/family education.
Continuous collaborative, bi-directional communication with families, teachers, therapists, and other adults involved in the child’s life is critical for informing the treatment plan.
Ideally, the plan is an integrated shared plan of care and all members of the care team have access to the same information and can build upon the shared care plan. Continuous collaborative, bidirectional communication with families, teachers, therapists, and other adults involved in the child’s life is critical for informing the treatment plan.
