Introduction
The Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) nursing team offers a comprehensive assessment for ADHD, which includes detailed school reports, rating scales (validated assessment tools) from both parent/carer and school; it may also include a school observation.
If the child is diagnosed with ADHD by a paediatrician, the team who consist of registered nurses and administrators who specialise in the assessment and treatment of condition will then meet with the child and family for a first appointment.
If you are waiting for a new or a follow up appointment and you are concerned about your child’s health please contact your GP, call 111 or 999 if an emergency.
