Managing Anxiety in Primary Care for New Nurse Practitioners

clinical topics psych Apr 21, 2020

Managing anxiety in primary care is super common, but especially now during the pandemic quarantine. Even though there is a psychiatric mental health NP specialty and psychiatry specialists, we need to know how to care for patients with anxiety in primary care. It's not just about knowing what treatment, but also assessing alternative differentials and triaging patients appropriately. 

In this video, you'll learn:

  • When it's anxiety... and when it's not
  • How to assess symptoms, history and the best tools to make it faster and easier
  • The step-by-step to manage anxiety, and what to do if it's not working. There's SO much I could say about anxiety and mental health, let me know what questions you have or topics you want to hear more about.
