Speech and Language Referral Form
After a Speech and Language Therapist has assessed your child, they may discuss a referral for an autism assessment. Speech and language therapy is part of the multidisciplinary team in Newcastle which provides an autism assessment and diagnostic service for children before they start school.
For children over 4 years old, your health professional can refer your child to the Children and Young People’s Service for an autism assessment.
