Welcome to NW Telepsychiatry!
Telepsychiatry (also referred to as telemedicine), which is approved by the American Psychiatric Association, can be defined as psychiatric/mental health treatment remotely using live video teleconferencing equipment.
Recent research studies have shown that Telepsychiatry can be as effective as traditional outpatient appointments while significantly reducing the costs of either a staff psychiatric team or outpatient service facilities. Telepsychiatry brings a level of convenience, cost-efficiency and most importantly a high level of privacy that is unmatched in a traditional psychiatric setting.
With healthcare costs on the rise each year, telemedicine opens up a vast abundance of possibilities for affordable psychiatric care in rural and underserved communities. NW Telepsychiatry will bring to you this affordability, convenience and staff of professional and well educated Psychiatrists and PMHNP (Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioners).
