About this role

This post forms part of Vertis Healths multidisciplinary Adult ASD diagnostic pathway. The ADOS-2 assessor will work alongside a clinician undertaking the developmental history and wider clinical assessment. Diagnostic decisions will be reached collaboratively through multidisciplinary discussion, integrating developmental history, clinical information, available collateral evidence and direct observational findings. The role does not routinely include responsibility for developmental history assessment, ongoing post-diagnostic intervention or independent case management. Following diagnostic decision-making, the ADOS-2 assessor will participate in joint diagnostic feedback with the developmental-history clinician. We are looking for an experienced ADOS-2 clinician who is confident undertaking adult Module 4 assessments and contributing thoughtful observational evidence to multidisciplinary diagnostic decision-making. You will bring strong assessment skills, sound professional judgement, attention to detail and a clear understanding that the ADOS-2 forms one component of a broader diagnostic process.
