Paediatric ADHD: Assessment, management, and care pathways

As ADHD management continues to evolve in New Zealand, this online webinar provides a comprehensive look at ADHD care for paediatric patients, covering everything from initial assessment to long-term management.

Participants will hear from experts on diagnostic processes, both non-pharmacological and pharmacological treatments, and strategies for starting and adjusting medications.

Speakers will focus on practical approaches for school and home settings, behaviour management with an emphasis on self-regulation and emotional control, and the impact of diet and exercise.

The webinar also offers guidance on navigating mental health systems, interactive discussions, and case-based learning to equip clinicians with the essential tools for effective ADHD management in the paediatric population.
