Daniela Donoso Pena, MD, is a pediatrician at a Federally Qualified Health Center in Holyoke, MA, where she treats patients in both English and Spanish. With her REACH training, she hopes to introduce standardized mental health screenings at well-child visits within her health center. She also aims to partner with the pharmacist in her health center to create pathways for more consistent management of common mental health issues.
"The solution seems obvious: Treating mental-health disorders must fall to pediatricians, who already have regular contact with their patients and are trusted providers. Itβs such an intuitive idea that parents have already started demanding it." Thankβ¦
