GAIN ACCESS TO THE AMEN CLINICS METHOD TOOLBOX
One of the most popular aspects of this course is the Amen Clinics Method Toolbox, which provides everything you need to implement brain health in your practice.
In this valuable toolbox, you’ll have access to the very same forms, questionnaires, and planning tools that Dr. Amen and the other physicians at Amen clinics use on a daily basis to improve diagnosis and outcomes. Dr. Amen spent decades creating these proprietary forms and is giving them to you with this course so you can integrate his brain-based methodology in your practice.
Dr. Amen considers these tools the “next best thing” to getting a brain SPECT scan evaluation at one of the Amen Clinics.
The Amen Clinics Method Toolbox includes:
-
Intake Forms for Children, Teens, and Adults: These forms, which are specifically tailored for children, teens, or adults, are the same forms Amen Clinics staff use when seeing new patients. With these intake forms, you’ll discover the things you aren’t currently asking patients that could be vitally important in offering the best care.
-
Checklists: These comprehensive checklists screen for psychiatric, learning, and brain system problems.
-
Treatment Algorithms: Use these detailed questionnaires to help identify ADD/ADHD, anxiety and depression, and dementia risk and follow the proprietary Amen Clinics treatment algorithms for effective solutions for these conditions.
