Professional Evaluations for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
Assistance with daily life is one of the NDIS services our dedicated support coordinators can help you access. It’s a holistic support service designed to empower you in your everyday routine, ensuring you can live your life as freely as possible.
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterised by persistent patterns of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. These symptoms can affect academic, occupational, and social functioning.
An ADHD assessment is important because it helps in accurately diagnosing the condition, which is essential for developing effective treatment plans. Early diagnosis and intervention can significantly improve outcomes, allowing individuals to manage symptoms and achieve their full potential.
Comprehensive ADHD Assessments by Experienced Professionals
Our ADHD assessments are thorough evaluations conducted by licensed and experienced professionals. These assessments help in accurately diagnosing ADHD, ensuring that individuals receive the appropriate support and interventions.
If your child exhibits signs such as difficulty sustaining attention, excessive fidgeting or restlessness, impulsivity, or challenges in school or social settings, it may be beneficial to seek an ADHD assessment. Consulting with your pediatrician or a specialist can help determine if an assessment is necessary.
The assessment process typically involves a series of evaluations conducted by a team of professionals, including psychologists, psychiatrists, and educational specialists. It includes interviews with parents, observation of the child, and standardised tests to assess various aspects of behaviour and attention.
The duration of the assessment process can vary, but it generally takes several hours spread over multiple sessions. This allows for a comprehensive evaluation and ensures that all aspects of the child’s behaviour and attention are thoroughly examined.
After the assessment is completed, you will receive a detailed report outlining the findings and recommendations. This report will guide the next steps, which may include specific therapies, behavioural interventions, and educational support. The assessment team will also be available to discuss the results and answer any questions you may have.
