Support for Children, Young People and Their Families with Neurodevelopmental Conditions

Descriptions

NHS Ipswich and East Suffolk and NHS West Suffolk (the CCGs) have been reviewing the neurodevelopmental journey for children, young people and their families. We have recognised that the journey as it is, is too complex and not meeting the needs of children, young people and families in terms of information, advice and support. This has highlighted the need for a pre, during and post assessment model of support for children and young people with neurodevelopmental conditions (e.g. ASD/ADHD, behaviours that challenge), complementing services which already exist. The CCGs are looking to commission provision that is needs led, patient centred, innovative, trusted and responsive to the needs of the Suffolk population.
