Family Care Health Centers

Psychiatry
Family Care Health Centers (FCHC) provides psychiatric care to children and youth. Psychiatry services include mental health assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and medication management. By appropriately evaluating children and youth for behavioral health issues and providing evidence-based treatment, we expect children and youth will improve the activities of daily living for the children, youth, and families of St. Louis County served by FCHC. Examples of improvements FCHC can support patients to achieve with this program include improvements in health practices, housing stability, communication, safe decision making, managing time, managing money, and nutrition.

Psychological Testing & Assessment
Family Care Health Centers (FCHC) provides comprehensive psychological testing and assessment services for children and youth with behavioral health concerns. Once completed, we report back to caregivers and provide information and recommendations on strategies adults and use to support the child or youth engagement with academic settings, improvement health practices, housing stability, communication, safe decision making, managing time, managing money, and nutrition.

Case Management
Family Care Health Centers provides case management services for children and families living in St. Louis County and engaging in at least one other behavioral health service with FCHC. FCHC care managers support families in navigating complex medical and social service delivery systems by coordinating assessments, interdisciplinary treatment planning, implementation of change efforts, monitoring of engagement and response to interventions, and evaluating progress toward improvement of daily functioning. Examples of improvements FCHC care managers can support children and families to achieve with this program include improvements in health practices, housing stability, communication, safe decision making, managing time, managing money, and nutrition.
