Asd Pathway Clinician
CAMHS Professionals
Job Description
CAMHS Professionals is recruiting experienced clinicians to join an established, fully remote ASD Assessment Pathway with a leading private provider. This is a fantastic opportunity to work collaboratively within a multidisciplinary team, contributing to high-quality autism assessments for adult patients. Clinicians are paired each day with a colleague from a different professional background to jointly assess patients using the ADI-R, ensuring a robust and comprehensive diagnostic process.
How the Pathway Works
Each clinician is paired with a colleague from a different discipline (e.g. a Nurse is paired with an SLT, OT, or Psychologist). Each pair sees two patients per day, with each clinician leading on one patient’s ADI-R assessment. Feedback is provided to the patient on the same day, and a 20-minute follow-up call is conducted by the lead clinician 12 weeks after the initial assessment.
Typical Day Structure
- 09:00 – 09:30 Reading time for patients being seen that day
- 09:30 – 11:00 First patient appointment (1.5 hrs)

- 14:00 – 15:00 Write report
- 15:00 – 16:00 MDT for both patients
- 16:00 – 16:30 Feedback outcome to patient
- 16:30 - 17:00 Lead clinician finalises combined report (including MDT & outcome)

Engagement Model
Direct Engagement
Clinicians engage directly with the client. Invoices are submitted once the report has been finalised and accepted by the patient (this typically takes around 2 weeks). Payment is made 30 days after invoice submission, with the option for weekly payment cycles where invoices are submitted weekly.
