Medication management from the Hollywood medical home
Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC prescribes within Florida PMHNP-BC scope. Every start, stop, and taper is documented with indication and monitoring.
What Medication Management actually includes
Antidepressant management includes adequate dose/duration, activation screening, and suicide-risk follow-up after initiation.
Refill-only care is not offered. If you need only a refill, you still need a monitoring interval.
Clinical FAQ
Can you prescribe if I am traveling?
Only if you are physically in a state where we are licensed — currently Florida telehealth.
Where is the office for in-person med checks?
7603 Davie Road Extension, Hollywood, FL 33024 — about 36 minutes from Deerfield Beach.
Can medication management be telehealth?
Yes if you are in Florida and the case is appropriate. Controlled-substance rules still apply.
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.
Will I get a refill without a visit?
Not as a routine. Monitoring interval is part of the prescription.
Do you prescribe stimulants?
When the evaluation supports ADHD and PDMP/safety checks pass. Not from a questionnaire alone.
Can seasonal residents establish psychiatric care with you?
Yes. We offer initial evaluations for seasonal visitors and can continue care via telehealth when patients return to their home state, subject to licensing requirements.
Do you treat depression related to isolation?
Absolutely. Isolation-related depression is common in coastal communities, especially among retirees and seasonal residents. Our evaluations identify contributing factors including hormonal changes and social disconnection.
DSM-5-TR framing for med side effects help
Not indicated to supply controlled substances without a supporting diagnosis and monitoring plan.
Polypharmacy review when the list exceeds what the diagnosis can justify.
ADHD medication only after the evaluation supports ADHD over mimics.
Bridge care after hospitalization until a stable outpatient cadence exists.
Access from Deerfield Beach
South Florida heat, hurricane disruption, shift work, and multigenerational households show up in Deerfield Beach presentations. Medication Management intake asks about those stressors explicitly.
Commute noise on I-95 and the Turnpike changes whether an in-office Medication Management visit is realistic this week. Telehealth is used when the clinical exam does not require the office.
ZIP 33064 is the lead postal code listed for Deerfield Beach. Mail-order labs and pharmacy routing still use the patient's actual address, not this page's city token.
Stimulants were started before a bipolar screen, and now sleep and irritability are worse.

Florida telehealth psychiatry is available to established and new patients located in Florida at the time of the visit, subject to licensure and clinical appropriateness. An in-person evaluation at the Hollywood office may be recommended when a physical exam, vital signs, or a more complete diagnostic interview is needed.
