The Assessment Process

This information is for the parents/guardians, carers, and/or case managers supporting the young person.  

What should my child do before the day of assessment? 

Ensure your child has a good night's sleep before the assessment day. Continue to administer medications prescribed by your child's GP or paediatrician (and please bring details of these to the appointment). If your child engages in substance abuse, please remind and encourage them to avoid alcohol and illicit drugs for at least 3 days prior to the assessment.  

What should we bring to the assessment? 

Please ensure that you bring the following items for your child (if applicable): 

• Reading glasses 
• Drink bottle
• Snacks, lunch (depending on time and length of appointment)

Where do I come? 

When an appointment has been confirmed, you will be sent an information sheet containing the clinic address, travel information and a map. Detailed information can also be found on our website under the Locations tab.
