- Course: Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) eLearning course (2 x 30 minute modules, 5 x Change your Practice screencasts)
This course consists of two 30-minute e-learning modules and five screencasts, each five minutes long, relating to various aspects of ADHD. The two modules provide a firm grounding in the understanding of the nature of ADHD, and its diagnosis and management, from a primary care perspective. The first four screencasts build on this, exploring presentation and symptomatic overlap in personality disorders, affective disorders, autistic spectrum disorders and substance misuse. The final screencast touches on key aspects of delivering care for people with ADHD in the criminal justice system.
