5 year old son Assesment coming up after 7 months waiting - advice?

Em83

Hi been waiting since october for my sons assesment. Now have a date coming up. 

Any advice on what to expect at the assesment? its at the Ryegate centre in sheffield and I think its a multi discplinary assesment. Is there usually a lot of assesments before you get a diagnosis or not?

Thanks

Emma

    Hi Em83, I'm in the same locality as you. I believe Ryegate sheffield use a combination of DMS 5 and ICD 10 (diagnostic tools) to assess plus a play based observation.You can google these to prepare for your parental input. Have they sent you a form to complete already? If not phone and request it. How long have you got to prepare before the assessment? Sheffield parent carer forum are great at offering advice. Hope all goes well.
