From the supplier: A neurodevelopmental approach to attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has been developed. This disorder is frequently overdiagnosed unless a complete evaluation by a good clinician is undertaken. With negative media coverage of psychostimulant medication, it is especially important that a thorough and accurate evaluation be made before children are given such drugs. Conceptualizing the developmental path of children with ADHD as not disordered, but delayed, can be helpful. Then each child's strengths can be built on. This approach gives a child psychiatric nurse a child-focused basis for assessment and development of interventions for a given child.
