Your first visit begins with the Initial evaluation which is performed mainly by a psychiatrist, however, the initial can be performed by a nurse practitioner specializing in psychiatry.
Follow-up Visits –
It is important for the patient to conduct regular follow-up visits with the psychiatrist or nurse practitioner after they have their initial evaluation for mental illness. … A follow-up visit also helps healthcare providers detect early post-hospitalization reactions or medication problems, follow-up visits demonstrate continuing care and is necessary for patients receiving prescription re-fills.
Psychiatrist vs Nurse Practitioners –
Functionally, the key difference is the training and authority to prescribe medications. Psychiatric nurse practitioners and psychiatrists have this privilege. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who complete specialty residency training in psychiatry and undergo more rigorous and specific training in medicine during their residency programs.
