    Autism-informed care

    This 3 hour session aims to provide an introduction to Autism-informed care. The team at Neurodiverse Connection will outline the current understanding of autism as a sensory and social communication difference. The session will then explore why an autism-informed approach to mental health care is needed, what it looks like and the positive impact it has on accessibility and outcomes for autistic individuals. The session will combine theory with lived experience insights. Reflections from the audience are invited and short breakout discussions are scheduled but participation is optional.

    This training is for anyone involved in the Culture of Care programme, including, but not limited to, ward based staff, members of the multi-disciplinary ward team, those with a lived experience role, organisational leaders and QI team members.
