Educators often face the pressure to address children's medical
needs within the school setting, but sometimes find themselves
having to make difficult decisions without adequate training,
support, or information about important pediatric issues. When
faced with a medical question, many may turn to the Internet where
information is sometimes reliable, sometimes not. This concise and
well-researched investigation into psychiatric health issues
provides credibility and verifiability of data and establishes a
foundation of confidence for any educator who must make policy,
differentiate instruction, provide educational accommodations,
offer special education services, collaborate with families, and
work with the community to serve to children's medical, physical,
and psychological needs. Written for school psychologists,
counsellors, administrators, and teachers, this highly practical
and easy-to-understand reference describes genetic, chromosomal,
and acquired disorders and discusses behavioural issues that may
manifest themselves in classrooms as well as treatment options and
intervention strategies. Readers will find: - A section on
neuropsychiatric conditions that affect the most children and
result in the most common questions directed at educators,
including Tourette syndrome, bipolar/mood disorders, and separation
anxiety disorder - A section on psychopharmacology that discusses
the use of atypical antipsychotics and autism, treating tardive
dyskinesia in children, medical management of ADHD, polypharmacy
prescription practice, and side effects of common health
medications - A section on dietary control and supplement use that
includes dietary treatments for autism, identification and
treatment of eating disorders, and use of steroids in adolescence
Each chapter includes a case study, parent handouts, and a
literature review based on the latest and most reliable scientific
research.
