Importance of Integrated Care for Children
Comments from Dr. Betsy Spoerke, Retired Founder of Mountainland Pediatrics, at the time of Community Reach Center's purchase of Mountainland Pediatrics: "I've seen a steady rise in kids with psychosocial problems during my 30 years in pediatric practice. A large portion of my practice involves young patients with special needs, many of whom have been removed from neglectful, abusive environments and placed in foster care. Children who have experienced the trauma of neglect, have been exposed to drugs and alcohol intrauterine or who were born to parents with compromised mental health, are more likely to suffer developmental delays, depression, exhibit poor social skills and even develop psychosis." According to Dr. Spoerke, having a mental health team just across the hall with expertise in treatment for children is a huge asset to Mountainland's pediatric staff, and of enormous benefit to the children and families in need of their services. |
