Specialist Care
Premium online ADHD assessments for children and adolescents
Veyra Healthcare provides comprehensive private online ADHD assessments for children and young people throughout the UK.
We have made our ADHD assessment process more accessible, convenient and stress-free, whilst allowing children to be assessed in the comfortable setting of their own home accompanied by their parents or carers.
Our comprehensive private online ADHD assessment for children and adolescents is undertaken within a secure and safe online environment.
All of our child assessments are performed by one of our specialist CAMHS Psychiatrists.
After your child has completed the DIVA5 and the other pre-assessment tools, your assessment with our CAMHS psychiatrist is usually around 1 -2 hours. Our aim is for families to have a full and comprehensive understanding following the outcome of the assessment - even if a diagnosis of ADHD is not concluded.
Any relevant or recommended treatment pathways will also be discussed and explained in detail, if there is a recommendation for medication an overview of the different types of medication will be provided.
Once you have had time to discuss your options as a family, we then see you again for a post diagnosis support appointment; this is your opportunity to ask us any questions about the outcome of the assessment or the next steps.
We seek to provide a service that surpasses anything else that we believe is available today, providing individuals and families access to the best people, the best tools that allow us to evidence progression, together with treatment plans, medication delivery and the support provided by our highly qualified and experienced team of multidisciplinary clinicians. All of whom specialise in conducting ADHD assessments.
Benefits of our online
ADHD assessment.
Our online ADHD assessment service is no different to our in person assessment, we have simply made it more accessible and convenient. Your child can be themselves in their natural environment, undertaking the assessment at a time that suits them.
There's no need to travel or disrupt daily routines. Plus, you will receive the same exceptional standard of care as you would if you visited us at one of our clinics, including the same assessment pathway and access to the same expert clinical team.
Or, visit us in person.
If you feel your child would feel more comfortable visiting us in person, we also offer the option to come into our clinic and meet our team face-to-face.
What do our online assessments entail?
All of our assessments for children and young people are supported by evidence-based, diagnostic tools such as the QB test and executive function tools and will usually involve input from the child, parents or guardians, and teachers and other family members.
By adopting a fully collaborative approach, it helps in supporting an in-depth and objective understanding of how your child's ADHD symptoms may have impacted them throughout their life and how treatments and pathways can help them in the future.
Process
Our simple
step-by-step process
Veyra Healthcare offer the most comprehensive ADHD assessment process available today. We employ the most up to date and fundamental testing tools required to give the most accurate diagnosis. The results of each test work together to form a clear picture of each individual case. Our unique assessment process ensures that our assessments are highly robust, and we provide a full suite of information for transfer of care.
Information gathering
Weâll send you two forms to complete; one for you to fill out about yourself and another for someone who knew you well as a child. These forms help us to gather a comprehensive understanding of your experiences from birth to now. The greater depth of information we gain here the more comprehensive the assessment process, however we know for some people this may not be possible, please donât worry just let us know and we will be able to guide you.
Extensive symptom testing
Included as part of our assessment process is a Computerised ADHD symptom test called a QbCheck. The QbCheck objectively measures symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity and impulsivity, comparing your scores against individuals matched for age and gender who do not have ADHD. As well as helping us with your diagnosis, we may also use these scores to monitor improvement in symptoms if you choose to sign up to our medication care pathway.
DIVA 5
One of our specialist ADHD nurse practitioners or Psychologists will meet with you (in person or online) to complete the DIVA 5 interview. This validated assessment seeks to understand which of the diagnostic criteria for ADHD you fulfil, by asking questions about symptoms experienced in childhood and if relevant into adulthood. We will evaluate symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity, as well as explore potential other ADHD symptoms further.
Many ADHD services complete the DIVA5 within the psychiatrist assessment - but we believe, that doing the DIVA5 prior to meeting our psychiatrist allows us to clinically evaluate ADHD and other potential co-morbidities in more detail, and look into how these impact your life â this provides you with a greater depth of understanding of what you experience and why.
Assessment and outcome with a Specialist CAMHS Psychiatrist
You will meet with one of our dedicated CAMHS psychiatrists either in person or online, who will clinically evaluate all the information gathered and complete a comprehensive assessment of your symptoms. They may ask further questions regarding your physical and mental health history, your experience of friendships, relationships, school and work if applicable. The psychiatrist will let you know if you meet the criteria for diagnosis of ADHD during this meeting.
They will ensure you fully understand ADHD and the impact this might be having on your life. They will explain your treatment options to you and answer any questions you may have.
If medication is discussed as a suitable treatment option , they will make recommendations based on your physical and mental health and advise our team to set you up on our medication care plan.
Following your assessment, you will be provided with a comprehensive assessment report. This report may be used to support PIP applications or disability student allowance if required.
If you receive a diagnosis, we will also provide letters (on request, but free of charge) for your academic provider or employer suggesting reasonable adjustments. If you are not diagnosed, your psychiatrist will explain why and may consider alternative mental health conditions or recommend further assessments as appropriate.
Comprehensive medication care pathway
If you decide to sign up for our medication care pathway, we will ensure that you receive ongoing reviews from our specialist ADHD nurse practitioners on a monthly basis.
Our specialist ADHD nurse practitioners will review your medication each month, take your physical observations (blood pressure/weight/height) and closely monitor you during the titration of your medication. We can provide a prescription for you on a monthly basis, or if you choose, we can arrange to have the medication delivered straight to your door.
Post-diagnosis support call
We understand that receiving a diagnosis of any kind can be difficult, especially for children and their families; for this reason, if you are diagnosed with ADHD and you feel that you need some additional support and guidance moving forward, you can book in to have an appointment with one of our specialist ADHD nurse practitioners.
Final medication care pathway review
Once optimised on the medication, youâll have a final review with one of our lead mental health nurse practitioners. We will then request a shared care agreement from your GP or continue providing private prescriptions if you choose. Your GP may also require an annual review to monitor your progress on the medication.
