Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about general practice assessments on ClientForms.

What tools do I need to diagnose ADHD as a GP?

The AADPA guideline recommends a combination of clinical interview and validated rating scales. Start with the ASRS-6 screener, then use the full ASRS (18-item) or the Adult ADHD Assessment (DSM-5), a structured interview, for a comprehensive symptom assessment. The WURS-25 captures retrospective childhood symptoms. The WFIRS-S measures functional impairment — required for a valid diagnosis. ClientForms provides all of these with instant scoring and severity bands.

What does the AADPA guideline recommend for ADHD assessment?

The Australian ADHD Guideline (NHMRC-approved) recommends: screening with validated tools like the ASRS, comprehensive clinical interview covering DSM-5 criteria in both adulthood and childhood, assessment of functional impairment across life domains, and differential diagnosis to rule out anxiety, depression, substance use, and autism. Rating scales should complement — not replace — clinical judgement.

Can I diagnose ADHD in children as a GP?

In SA (ages 8+), WA (ages 10+), and VIC (details pending), trained GPs can diagnose and prescribe for paediatric ADHD. The Vanderbilt parent and teacher rating scales collect collateral evidence from two settings as DSM-5 requires. QLD and NSW GP prescribing currently covers adults only.

Is ClientForms compliant with Australian privacy requirements?

Yes. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256), stored on Australian servers in Sydney. ClientForms complies with the Australian Privacy Principles. Assessment forms are completed by patients on their own device — no patient data passes through third-party servers.
