FASD Factsheet – Foster Carers

Foster carers have a key role to play in identifying and responding to unmet health needs of children in their care. You may be the first person to recognise that your child has or may have Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD).

This factsheet has been produced by Velma Eyre and explains:

what information about FASD you might receive on placement;
why you should discuss FASD at annual medicals;
what support a foster child might access if they have or may have FASD;
how to access your own support if your foster child has or may have FASD; and
where to get further information.
