Integrating ADHD care into practice work flows is vitally important for all practitioners who care for children, said Herschel Lessin, MD, a senior partner of the Children’s Medical Group in Poughkeepsie, N.Y. Although not necessarily “easy” to do, it’s far less overwhelming than it seems when doctors take the time to thoughtfully set up protocols, train others in the office, and use the ADHD Toolkit sold by the American Academy of Pediatrics, Dr. Lessin told attendees at the annual meeting of the AAP, held virtually this year.
