We are currently accepting referrals for Autism assessments for young people who have a background of social care involvement. Once the young person has been referred, the referral will be screened by one of our senior clinicians, and if accepted, we will send our Autism Screening pack to the relevant parties, including school, carers and the young person themselves, as appropriate. This will then be discussed in by our Specialist Multi-Disciplinary Autism Team, which includes Clinical Psychologists, Psychiatrists, Speech and Language Therapists etc. Then, if further assessment is indicated, a member of our specialist team will complete a full developmental history and a semi-structured observational assessment. We will then feedback the results to the referrer, young person and carers, and well as completing a report. We will keep the referrer and team around the child fully updated at every step of the journey, as appropriate.
At CB4C we believe that the most important part of any diagnostic assessment is what happened afterwards. Following both the full ADHD and Autism assessment, we will feedback to the carers and young person, and complete a detailed diagnostic report, which includes a bespoke action and support plan. This will include recommendations based on the reports and observations made as part of the assessments, and will include strategies on how best to support neurodivergent people. The report may include areas such as supporting with behaviours that challenge, sensory needs, and communication difficulties. Our focus is always to make any strategies or interventions as practicable, useful, and easy to implement as possible. If required, our experienced clinicians can also work with the young person and wider team to co-produce a more detailed plan to provide a holistic and detailed intervention plan.
We are currently accepting referrals for ADHD assessments for young people who have a background of social care involvement, to help them and their team differential between complex developmental trauma and ADHD. Once a referral form has been completed, this will be screened by one of our experienced senior clinicians, and if accepted, we will send our ADHD Screening pack to gather information regarding the difficulties the young person is facing, and their current presentation. We would then discuss this in our specialist Multi-disciplinary team. If the young person meets criteria for a full assessment, a member of our clinical team would conduct a series of interviews with the young person, the person’s carers, and if necessary, additional parties, such as teachers, social workers, etc. We will then feedback the results to the referrer, young person and carers, and well as completing a report. We will keep the referrer and team around the child fully updated at every step of the journey, as appropriate.
