Clinical scope of Medication Management in Broward County

Refill-only care is not offered. If you need only a refill, you still need a monitoring interval.

Psych med management includes saying no when the requested drug does not match the diagnosis.

Local context for Medication Management in Broward County

Hyponatremia on an SSRI in an older Davie patient was never checked.

You want off a medication and were told that desire is a symptom.

You fear dependency, so you skip doses and then crash, which looks like 'nonadherence.'

Clinical FAQ

What labs do I need?

Depends on the drug: TSH, lithium level, A1c, etc. We will list them in the plan.

What is PDMP?

Florida's prescription drug monitoring program. We check it before controlled substances.

Do you treat insomnia with medication only?

No. We look for apnea, circadian issues, alcohol, and psychiatric drivers.

Can a PMHNP-BC prescribe psychiatric medication in Florida?

Yes. Dr. Chatelier is a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. Prescribing is within Florida APRN scope, with monitoring.

Do you prescribe benzodiazepines long-term?

Rarely, with a documented indication and a taper orientation. They are not a standing plan for GAD.

Will you take over my current list?

After a diagnostic review. We do not rubber-stamp unsafe combinations.

How far are you from NSU?

Our Hollywood office is approximately 10 minutes from Nova Southeastern University's main campus, making us a convenient option for students seeking psychiatric care.

Do you treat college students from Davie?

Absolutely. We work with many college-age patients on ADHD management, anxiety, depression, and adjustment disorders common in academic settings.

What we rule in — and rule out

Not indicated for out-of-state telehealth prescribing.

Medication Management still has to map to a problem on the list.

Not indicated to supply controlled substances without a supporting diagnosis and monitoring plan.

Not indicated as a replacement for inpatient care when risk is high.

If Medication Management is the right next step, schedule a 60–90 minute intake with Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC. Same-week telehealth follow-ups are used after the diagnostic visit when clinically appropriate.
