There is certain information that patients must provide ADHD Direct before attending for their appointment. Our clinicians may not be able to complete the appointment or communicate with patient’s GP if they will not be given this information by the patient. 

Forms and questionnaires 

When we send forms and questionnaires to patients, we ask that these forms are returned to us completed and that they are returned the latest one working day before the appointment. This will allow administrators to upload completed forms on to patient’s file and clinician to read it.  

While we know that for some of our patients, filling out forms is not easy, it is important that all forms and all sections of received forms are completed. This is especially important for ADHD and Autism Assessments. 

NOTE: Failure to return completed questionnaires before the appointment will result in cancelling the appointment and the deposit paid will be kept by ADHD Direct. New appointment will need to be booked and new deposit will need to be paid. 

Measurements – blood pressure, pulse, weight  

Patients who attend the clinic for their Medication Review face-to-face appointment will have their blood pressure, pulse and weight checked by one of the nurses. Children will also have their height checked. Those of our patients who choose to book Medication Review as a virtual appointment will be asked to check their measurements by themselves and send these measurements to ADHD Direct by email. We can recommend blood pressure monitors – please ask one of our staff for this recommendation. 

NOTE: Our clinicians will not communicate with patient’s GP until measurements are provided. This may result in patients’ treatment being stopped.  

Those of our patients who receive private prescriptions from ADHD Direct, may not be able to continue their treatment until up-to-date measurements are provided before/during patient’s Medication Review appointment.
