Introduction to Neurodevelopmental Assessments

What are ADHD, ASD, and ADOS
Neurodevelopmental Assessments?

A neurodevelopmental assessment evaluates various areas of functioning to pinpoint strengths and weaknesses. This is crucial following concerns about a child’s development or any illness/injury that may impact brain function. Our assessments cover a range of conditions including Intellectual Disability, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD).

Understanding Key Neurodevelopmental Conditions

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) encompasses a range of conditions characterised by challenges with social skills, repetitive behaviours, and communication. In legal contexts, understanding ASD is crucial for accurately representing individuals with this condition.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterised by symptoms like inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. In legal settings, understanding how ADHD impacts behavior and decision making is vital for fair representation.
