Disorders
NURTURE INFORMATION HUB
Neurodevelopmental disorders are brain based, developmental conditions that affect the development of the nervous system, leading to abnormal brain function which may affect emotion, learning ability, self-control, and memory. These disorders most commonly begin in childhood and can be lifelong. These disorders can present with difficulties in communication, inattentiveness, learning ability, self-control, memory, trouble interacting with others, hyperactivity, repetitive behaviour, lack of eye contact, all of which evolves as an individual develops and grows. Children will require a development assessment for these conditions to be diagnosed. Early diagnosis means children will have access to early intervention, which can make a big difference to children’s outcomes.
