Origin

Why OnDemand Psychiatry was created

What Dr. Padder observed repeatedly
  • Complex psychiatric decisions made under time pressure
  • Increasing medication complexity
  • Documentation demands growing every year
  • Limited access to subspecialty support
  • Clinical variability across settings and providers
  • Growing workforce shortages
The question

How can psychiatric clinicians receive structured support while remaining fully responsible for patient care?

The result

OnDemand Psychiatry, a psychiatry-specific clinical decision-support platform designed around real-world psychiatric workflows.

“Psychiatric practice requires thoughtful clinical judgment in every setting. OnDemand Psychiatry was created to support that work through structured psychiatric decision support designed specifically for psychiatric care.”

High-acuity stabilization, polypharmacy, suicide and violence risk, daily progress and discharge documentation.
Outpatient & telepsychiatry
Longitudinal management, treatment-resistant cases, careful sequencing, adherence, between-visit risk.
Addiction, detox, rehab & residential
Dual diagnosis, withdrawal protocols, polypharmacy in complex panels, refusal-of-care documentation.
Consultation-liaison psychiatry
Delirium versus primary psychiatric illness, psychotropics in medically fragile patients, capacity, organ-dysfunction risk.
Pediatric · adult · geriatric
Developmentally and age-appropriate dosing, monitoring, and risk thresholds across the lifespan.
