How long does testing typically last?
Full evaluation ranges from 4-7 hours. It is typically less for younger children. I encourage splitting the testing into two mornings to ensure the most accurate results of skill and ability. Screenings are typically 1-2 hours.
How should I prepare my child for testing?
My advice would be to keep it simple and positive. 'We are going to learn better about how your brain works and if there are things that mommy, daddy, grandma, grandpa, teachers, etc. can differently to better help you when you need it.'
Avoid the use of the word 'test'. The evaluation is comprised of several activities and tasks; some fun and novel and some more school like.
Get a good night sleep the night before.
Bring some small snacks and a drink.
Dress them comfortably.
If they are fearful or anxious, they are welcome to bring a comfort item.
When should I expect testing results?
A feedback session will be scheduled approximately 2-3 weeks from the final dates of testing. Sessions are usually 90 minutes. A full written report with recommendations will be provided.
