Neurodevelopment

How we can help

The neurodevelopment service is a specialist service for children and adolescents that offers:

• diagnostic assessments for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
• personalised recommendations to support needs and recognise strengths
• psychoeducation for autism spectrum disorder and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder
• signposting to partner agencies and other organisations for additional support
• support for other children and adolescent mental health service pathways if mental health or emotional well-being concerns arise

In Rotherham and Doncaster, we offer medication support and behavioural strategies for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.

In North Lincolnshire, we refer to the Community Paediatric team for medication support and behavioural advice.
