In Wakefield, adult and children's ADHD assessments are commissioned through NHS West Yorkshire Integrated Care Board and delivered primarily by South West Yorkshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust (SWYPFT), which covers both CAMHS and adult mental health pathways across the Wakefield district. Waiting times on the standard NHS pathway are currently multi-year for both adults and children, reflecting longstanding national capacity pressures that are particularly acute in this area. Many Wakefield GPs are familiar with the NHS Right to Choose pathway, which allows adults to self-refer to an approved independent provider funded by the NHS, though uptake varies and some patients report inconsistent guidance from their practice about eligibility. CAMHS waits remain subject to standard local commissioning with no equivalent Right to Choose provision for under-18s, leaving families with very limited options while waiting. For those managing an extended wait, a qEEG brain activity screening can provide objective, clinically meaningful data about attention and cognitive regulation — useful context for both individuals and clinicians when the formal assessment eventually takes place.
