About the course

This online masterclass for GPs provides a focused evaluation of how to respond effectively to patients showing symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity and impulsivity.

By the end of the course, you will feel confident about discussing pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment options with their patients, providing appropriate referrals to specialist services, and taking over the ongoing prescribing of recommended medication for patients with a confirmed diagnosis.

You are encouraged to raise discussion points for the expert facilitators in the Q&A session.
