Navigating the Journey Virtual Workshops: A Medical Overview of Autism Spectrum Disorders

Tuesday, May 7, 2024, from 10:00 am to 11:30 am ET

Presenter: Theresa D’Ambrosio, Advanced Practice Nurse, Certified Pediatric Nurse Practitioner Hamilton

About this session:

Your child recently received a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder and you have questions:

• What is Autism and how is it diagnosed?
• What does it mean to be “on the spectrum”?
• What are co-occurring diagnoses?
• What causes Autism?
• How do I know if my child is improving?
• When and why would medications be prescribed?

This session seeks to clarify Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and co-occurring diagnoses. The core symptoms of ASD, treatment options, and medications will also be explored. We hope you leave this session with answers to some common questions and additional insight about ASD.

This event will be presented via Zoom.

You will receive a reminder and the login details needed to join the meeting in an email 3 days before this session. Thank you
