Overview
In the ever-evolving landscape of child psychiatry, understanding the latest advancements in the evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of Autism and ADHD is crucial for healthcare professionals. This presentation aims to provide an in-depth review of these critical areas, focusing on recent pharmaceutical developments and strategies for managing medication shortages. Attendees will gain insights into the latest therapeutic options, enhancing their ability to provide effective care. Moreover, the presentation will address the vital aspect of behavioral support within neurodiversity. It will highlight practical examples of successful behavioral interventions in various settings, emphasizing the role of early screening. By showcasing how modern screening tools can assist in the early identification of Autism and ADHD, the session will guide participants toward implementing more personalized and effective interventions. This approach not only improves outcomes but also supports the broader goal of fostering an inclusive and supportive environment for individuals with neurodiverse conditions.
