ℹ️ ADHD Assessments Update

From 1 February, GPs and Nurse Practitioners in Aotearoa can diagnose and treat ADHD for people aged 18+.

📋 These assessments are in-depth and require multiple, extended appointments.

At this time, Hauora Hokianga is not able to offer ADHD diagnostic assessments due to staffing capacity.

🔎 We can still support you with guidance on referral options.

🔗 Helpful resources are also available through ADHD NZ:

Ngā mihi for your understanding.
