Schools are evolving to support all students, including those with mental health issues. Clinicians can help patients and schools by providing diagnostic clarity about a child’s condition, how that condition interferes with school progress, and what interventions are needed in the school setting. State and Federal legislation supports timely response by schools to mental health issues emerging in students through special education laws and general education accommodations, such as Response To Intervention (RTI), which encourages schools to implement evidence-based interventions for students exhibiting mental health conditions. Case examples illuminate important legal considerations when clinicians are faced with issues such as therapeutic placements, home hospital forms, and substance abuse, and student misconduct.
学校正在发展，以支持所有学生，包括那些有心理健康问题的学生。临床医生可以通过提供关于儿童病情的明确诊断、该病情如何干扰学校进步以及在学校环境中需要哪些干预措施，来帮助患者和学校。州和联邦立法通过特殊教育法和一般教育便利措施（如干预反应疗法 (RTI)）支持学校对学生中出现的心理健康问题做出及时反应，这些法律和便利措施支持学校对表现出心理健康状况的学生实施基于证据的干预措施。案例示例阐明了临床医生在面对治疗性安置、家庭医院表格和药物滥用以及学生行为不端等问题时的重要法律考虑因素。
