Transition - Young People, Young Adult & Parent Carer Survey

30/7/2020

 
What is this study about?
We are working on a study to explore the quality of care received by young people and young adults who are currently transitioning, or who have previously transitioned their ongoing healthcare needs from child to adult services.

“Transition” is defined as the purposeful, planned process that addresses the medical, psychosocial, educational and vocational needs of a young person as they move from child-centred to adult-centred healthcare. (Blum R. W. et al, Transition from child-centred to adult health-care systems for adolescents with chronic conditions. A position paper of the Society for Adolescent Medicine, J Adolesc Health, 1993 Nov;14(7):570-6.)

As an example, we will be looking at young people and young adults with chronic conditions such as cerebral palsy or epilepsy who have experience transferring their care from a paediatrician or child health clinician to a doctor in adult medicine, GP or other adult health clinician.

The aim of the study will be to produce a report for clinicians and other professionals about how to improve the care they deliver, and guidance for young people and families on what care you should expect to receive.

As part of the scoping of this project we are asking young people and parent carers about your experiences and interactions with healthcare services during the transition period.

To make sure we include your views when designing the study we would like to ask you a few questions about the process of transition.

WHAT WE DO

We help the communities of the former district of Easington which is made up 20 distinct areas, most of which are former Pit villages that continue to be hugely affected by deprivation following the closure of the Pits.
​
We run a wide range of projects to help the community fight disadvantage including food parcels, telephone befriending for the socially isolated, helping people in the downward spiral of debt, supporting people to get the benefits they deserve, providing holiday activities with food, getting the disengaged engaged with the arts and more.
