Fiona Project is closed and not currently providing ADHD assessment or prescribing services.

Following the resignation of our Clinical Director, and a review of our clinical governance arrangements, we have concluded that the service is unable to continue operating safely under its existing model.

The service is experiencing significant operational difficulties common to remote ADHD service models, particularly in relation to the provision of long-term prescribing without consistent shared care support from NHS Primary Care and access to face-to-face clinical monitoring. The service was not designed to provide long-term ADHD management in the absence of these arrangements.

In addition, without a Clinical Director in post, it would not be clinically appropriate or responsible to continue providing ADHD prescribing. At this time, we are unable to appoint a replacement Clinical Director, and the service will therefore remain closed.

All patients who were previously under our care have been contacted directly and supported through a managed transition of care, including guidance on referral to NHS Integrated Care Board (ICB)-commissioned services or alternative providers where appropriate.

This decision has been taken in the interests of patient safety, regulatory compliance, and good clinical. Further updates will be published on this page should the status of the service change.
