The service scored well in areas of assessment and management with stimulants. Potential areas to be addressed included age of referral, differences in referrals across ethnic groups, providing psychosocial interventions coupled with medication and shared care.
Conclusion:
It is possible to provide a service that adheres as closely as possible to the guidelines.
