ADHD assessment

How are they done? All I know is that it’s done by camhs. We should get an appointment through soon but it’ll be online.
Will it be done straight away, or will there be a series of appointments before the actual assessment?
Also, can I ask to be referred back to the paediatrician as I’m still concerned about autism? (Got assessed 2 years ago and they said no) would they want to wait for the outcome of the adhd assessment first?
Sorry for all the questions I just need to get to the bottom of what’s going on. It’s been years and it’s starting to really affect him now. I’m beginning to worry about his future. If support had been in place earlier I really don’t feel we’d be where we are now.

I'm not sure that ours were camhs, but for the youngest I asked to be referred and the school sent a report. They asked me loads of questions starting with the pregnancy, delivery, early years, home life, family and observed her playing.

I think that was it.

You probably should mention your autism concerns as well.
