Feb. 202024

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder that affects children and can persist into adulthood. Managing ADHD requires a comprehensive approach that addresses both the physical and psychological aspects of the condition. At the Center for Pediatric Medicine, we understand the unique challenges that come with ADHD, and we’re dedicated to providing compassionate and effective treatment options for children and families affected by this condition. Join us as we explore our approach to ADHD treatment and discover how we can support your child’s health and well-being.

Understanding ADHD

ADHD is characterized by symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity, which can significantly impact a child’s daily functioning and quality of life. While the exact cause of ADHD is not fully understood, it is believed to involve a combination of genetic, environmental, and neurobiological factors. Effective management of ADHD requires a tailored approach that addresses the specific needs of each child and takes into account their unique strengths and challenges.

Our Approach to ADHD Treatment

  1. Comprehensive Evaluation: At the Center for Pediatric Medicine, our team of experienced healthcare professionals begins the ADHD treatment process with a thorough evaluation of your child’s symptoms, medical history, and developmental milestones. This comprehensive assessment helps us accurately diagnose ADHD and develop a personalized treatment plan that addresses your child’s individual needs.
  2. Multimodal Treatment Strategies: We believe in taking a multimodal approach to ADHD treatment, which may include a combination of medication, behavioral therapy, educational interventions, and lifestyle modifications. By combining different treatment modalities, we can target the various symptoms of ADHD and help your child learn to manage their condition more effectively.
  3. Ongoing Monitoring and Support: ADHD is a chronic condition that requires ongoing monitoring and support to ensure optimal outcomes. Our team provides regular follow-up appointments to assess your child’s progress, adjust their treatment plan as needed, and address any concerns or challenges that may arise along the way. We also offer guidance and support to parents and caregivers to help them better understand ADHD and support their child’s treatment journey.

Our holistic approach to treatment focuses not only on managing symptoms but also on helping children develop the skills and strategies they need to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

Center for Pediatric Medicine is here for your pediatric needs 24.7, 365 days a year! We understand that your child may get sick outside of CPM’s normal office hours.

How does after-hours work:

  • Monday – Thursday: our offices will close at 9:00 pm. We then re-open at 8:30 am Friday.
  • Friday- our offices will close at 6:00 pm. We then re-open at 8:30 am Saturday.

  • Sunday- our office will close at 1:00 pm. We then re-open at 8:30 am Monday.

During the hours we are closed we are readily available to assist you with any urgent clinical concerns you may have.

You can call any of our office locations or 203-790-0822. You will be promoted with an after-hours message. If you select option 1 you will be connected with CPM’S after-hours answering service team. The after-hours team will gather all of your child’s information (Patient's first and last name, best contact number, and health care concern). This message will be sent to “Rainbow Babies” an experienced triage service that CPM uses to assist us with clinical after-hours calls. A trained triage nurse will call the patient back and provide the recommended clinical advice. If the triage nurse needs more assistance they will reach out to one of CPM’s on-call providers for the night. CPM’s on-call provider will call the patient directly and continue to evaluate your child over the phone. All phone call encounters are followed up with a call the next day from CPM’s triage department.

If it is a life-threatening emergency please call 911.
