11 COMPLEX NEEDS Autistic Spectrum Disorder The last PIP said: • we said we would improve the way services work together; provide training for staff; provide information about services; develop a strategy; and create more day opportunities. What have we done? • we have commissioned accommodation and support for eight people with autistic spectrum disorders and a specialist day service • some people are being supported to attend college. What do you think? • some people have commented about the positive development of services for people on the autistic spectrum • there are still concerns about shortfalls in resources reducing opportunities and choice for younger people and older people who are not diagnosed slipping through the net • improvement in information and training were recognised, but progress is still required in these areas, for example in day services. What improvements do we plan to make over the next three years? • further discussion is needed to establish who will take a lead in planning for people with autistic spectrum disorders (ASO) • we will continue to pursue implementation of the recommendations from the report on ASD services in Dundee PARTNERSHIP IN PRACTICE 2007-2010 29 11
11 • we will develop training for carers and staff, including communication training, to support people with ASD. We will examine the potential to use National Autistic Society accreditation of training for staff who work with people with ASD in their own homes • we will continue to develop services especially designed to meet the needs of people with autistic spectrum disorder • we will undertake a needs analysis for post school education for people with ASD in partnership with Dundee College • we will ensure services promote equality of opportunity and diversity. 30 PARTNERSHIP IN PRACTICE 2007-2010
