We are an adult service, we accept referrals for clients aged 18 and above.

If you think your patient would benefit from a referral to our service, you need to complete a referral form.

When we receive a referral, we will assess it and if appropriate your patient will be put on our waiting list. We will send out a letter to confirm if they have been placed on our waiting list, or to explain why we cannot accept them for assessment.

We will provide your patient with resources to help and support you whilst they wait for your assessment. If we do not think a referral for ADHD assessment is appropriate, we will direct them to other possible services and resources that may be of help.

Unfortunately we cannot accept self-referrals. 

If you are a GP or another suitable healthcare professional, you can refer your patient for ADHD assessment at our clinic by filling in this form.

Once you have completed the referral - and ensured consent from your patient - you need to either:

• email it to SAANS@shsc.nhs.uk
• send in the post to Sheffield Adult Autism and Neurodevelopmental Service, Michael Carlisle Centre, 75 Osborne Road, Sheffield, S11 9BF

If you are a health professional making a referral to our service you can take a look at our guidance for referrers and eligibility and selection criteria here. 

Please note that we cannot accept referrals for anyone who has been diagnosed with a learning disability.
