I have a some with developmental disabilities and PANDAS , our new MHNP thinks our son experiences anti cholingergic syndrome without the meds OD being a issue, this video helped me to understand a lot!
This is an intelligent way to group things and organize information. one could create flowcharts, organized by color and expand on information with flashcards. What app allows you to make the flowcharts?
