Caring for Children with ADHD

A Resource Toolkit for Clinicians

Establishing standards for diagnosis and treatment of ADHD.

The ADHD toolkit was created by applying sound principles of chronic care management to ADHD cases—namely, involving families in a total care program, tracking the results of our studies, using evidence to establish guidelines and coordinating care among various caregivers.
