The Adult ADHD Service Line within Oxleas NHS Foundation Trust
The Adult ADHD Service Line within Oxleas NHS Foundation Trust comprises two key services: the Adult ADHD Service and the South East London (SEL) ADHD Referral Triage Service.
About the Adult ADHD Service
The Adult ADHD Service provides assessment, diagnosis, and treatment for adults with ADHD across Bromley, Bexley, and Greenwich. Operating from an administrative base at Queen Mary’s Hospital, Orpington, the service employs a hybrid model of face-to-face and remote assessments. It initiates and titrates ADHD medication, offering annual reviews or additional reviews as clinically indicated, before transferring stable care to GPs.
About the SEL ADHD Referral Triage Service
The SEL ADHD Referral Triage Service delivers a centralised referral system for ADHD assessments across six SEL boroughs. This service ensures equitable access and streamlined triage.
Collaborative Work
Both services work collaboratively with GPs, Mental Health Hubs, and secondary care teams to manage complex cases, reduce waiting times, and maintain high standards of care in line with NICE guidance.
