The Devon adhd assessment website went from “seeing people referred in 2021” about this time last year, to “seeing people referred in 2020” this year. How do you go backwards like that, are they re-assessing all the people from 2021 that they’ve already seen? Will it keep going backwards until everyone needs to be assessed again?
