Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is defined by differences in social communication
and restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior, interests, or activities. Skills
and challenges can change depending on environmental stimuli, supports, and
stressors. Quality of life can be improved by the use of accommodations,
assistive technologies, therapies to improve adaptive function or communication,
caregiver training, acceptance, access, and inclusion. This article focuses on
the identification of ASD in adults, referrals for services, the recognition of
associated conditions, strategies and accommodations to facilitate effective
primary care services, and ethical issues related to caring for autistic adults.
