For three weeks in February, the Universitat Jaume I hosted a series of conferences entitled "Entender y atender el autismo" [Understanding and dealing with autism], which were attended by around one hundred professionals from the fields of education and health: psychiatrists, psychologists, therapists and social integrators.

During the sessions, issues related to autism spectrum disorders (ASD), their early detection and intervention were addressed by three experts: Amaia Hervás, Marta Salgado and Montse Parera.

The conference concluded that autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are neurodevelopmental disorders whose prevalence has increased considerably in recent years and affects more than 1% of live births, and that people affected by any ASD require comprehensive care by health services with close coordination with the educational system and social services.

Specialists have stressed the need for the intervention to actively include the family of the person affected by ASD and that health services should have adequate training in the understanding and management of people with ASD, taking into account the high variability in the presentation of symptoms.

Throughout the three sessions, it has been emphasised that health care teams dealing with people with ASD should be made up of various disciplines and work in an interconnected way and that serious cases requiring hospitalisation and presenting behavioural disorders should be dealt with by teams with sufficient numbers of staff to be able to provide the care they require and that as full citizens they are entitled to.
