Feedback on Bromley All-Age Partnership Webpage

As part of the Bromley All-age Autism Partnership and following feedback already received from the sub group meetings and shared lived experience we are currently working across Bromley to develop improved information on the Autism assessment pathway for children and young people. This information would be to better inform parents and carers on what to expect. But also, to ensure that all professionals who may be involved are clear on the process, and therefore better placed to support families.

 

There will be two key products from this work. The first is an improved webpage hosted by the assessment provider, Bromley Healthcare. Here the assessment process will be clearly explained. In addition, we aim to include details of signs of autism, and other information that may support parents such as how to prepare for the assessment, and where to get early support.

 

The second product will be a leaflet (electronic and paper). This will be shared with GPs, schools, and other professional groups who may need to advise concerned parents. This will be a limited source of information but will include links to the developing webpage.

 

We would welcome your feedback on the draft information we have collected so far. Is this appropriate regarding content and language? Can you understand it? Is anything missing?

 

Please use the template attached to share your views. There is space at the end for further comments. If you would like to discuss any of this further please get in touch. Please do cascade to anyone you feel appropriate.

 

As we hope to get this information shared as soon as possible we are asking for feedback by the 10th July. Please return your completed form to:  [email protected]
