25-30% clients with SLD have ASD 75% of ASD have SLD
This presentation came about when I was working as a developmental fellow last year, and still at the end of the year I was confused about all the different services that exist. It doesn’t come naturally, and similar to computers, once who think you understand the system, they start changing names of agencies, or new services or programmes become available. This presentation is by no means complete, and I welcome any suggestions and corrections. It is meant as a guideline and reference point for registrars and fellows coming to work with the developmental team here at Auckland, and although the services described in this presentation have the same function in other DHBs, they might have different names.
When I started looking into the all the different referral and services pathway, I tried to put them all onto one big flow chart, and it soon became obvious, this would be clear as mud!
