Overview
- You may be referred by your GP for an autism assessment, an ADHD assessment, or an assessment for both.
- Our assessments are designed to help you explore your experiences, understand yourself better, and consider whether a diagnosis may be appropriate and helpful for you.
- During an autism assessment, we explore areas such as communication, sensory experiences, routines, and interests. For a diagnosis, autistic characteristics must have been present from early life and affect different areas of daily living.
- During an ADHD assessment, we explore areas such as attention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. For a diagnosis, ADHD characteristics must have been present from early life and affect different areas of daily living.
- Both autism and ADHD come with unique strengths as well as challenges. Through the assessment, we build a clear picture of your individual strengths and needs, and work with you to outline a plan for any ongoing support.
Please Note
We are a diagnostic service. If you already have an ADHD diagnosis and require medication, please see our Adult ADHD Treatment Services page for further information. Alternatively, please contact: ADHDmedsec@covwarkpt.nhs.uk.
