The process within Powys has been considered in line with DSM-V, The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidance and in adherence with Guidance on the Delivery of ND Services in Wales (Standards) (2018). It is informed by The Autism Code of Practice (2021). The ND service objective is to provide a timely, high-quality child-centred neurodevelopmental assessment using a multi-disciplinary MDT approach to facilitate sound decision making in supporting diagnosis for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). This process will be in line with national standards and measured accordingly. There is a single point of referral (including self-referral) to the neurodevelopment service.
