This guideline aims to create greater consistency in diagnostic practices across the country to ensure individuals on the autism spectrum and their families can receive the optimal clinical care. The Guideline emphasises the importance of listening to individuals and their families about the impact of the behaviours on family life.
The guideline recommendations were approved by Australia’s National Health and Medical Research Council and developed with the financial support of the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA).
