Support without identification: a regressive shift in neurodevelopmental care? | The Lancet Child & Adolescent Health
Support without identification: a regressive shift in neurodevelopmental care? | The Lancet Child & Adolescent Health
Contrary to English and Scottish Government policies, which convey an expectation that people who might be neurodivergent can request an assessment through the National Health Service (NHS), services in some areas of the UK have paused or stopped new referrals for assessment and diagnosis (hereafter called identification) for children and young people. Other services are preparing to follow. The proposed replacement (support without identification) is sold as a needs-led approach or as de-medicalising neurodivergence but is more likely a response to long waiting lists and overstretched services.
