NHS services should be following guidance published by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) on \u2018Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD): diagnosis and management (NICE guideline 87)\u2019, which was revised in April 2018. This covers recognising, diagnosing and managing ADHD in children, young people and adults. It aims to improve recognition and diagnosis, as well as the quality of care and support for people with ADHD.<\/p>
NHS England is developing new mental health pathways for adults, children and young people with mental health diagnoses and co-morbid neurodevelopmental disorders. These could benefit people with autism, ADHD and other neurodevelopmental disorders who have mental health needs by facilitating better and faster diagnosis.<\/p>
There is no confirmed publication date for these pathways.<\/p>
