  6. Definition of Transition “The purposeful, plannedmovement of adolescents and young adults with chronic physical and medical conditions from child-centered to adult-oriented health care systems.” -Society for Adolescent Medicine

  7. Goals of Transition and Empowerment • Transfer of care from child-oriented to adult-oriented services with uninterrupted services • Promote autonomy, self-care and self-determination • Allow assumption of adult roles and responsibilities when appropriate • Maximize life-long functioning and potential

  8. Should we be transitioning and empowering everyone? “Adults, including those with childhood-acquired chronic conditions, should receive adult-oriented primary health care from appropriately trained and certified providers, in adult health care settings.” -Society for Adolescent Medicine

  9. Why not stay with the pediatric provider? • Expertise in adult medical care • Long-term effects of childhood diseases • Promote independence and autonomy • The population of adults with complex pediatric conditions continues to grow!

  13. Patient-Centered Medical Home

  14. A Team Effort

  15. Strengths-Based Care • Providing strength-based care requires that pediatricians do the • following: • ask questions, • provide feedback, • use a framework or checklist to identify the patient’s assets, • share decision-making, and • ask parents and the patient for feedback. • Empower: to promote the self-actualization or influence of

  16. Parent-Youth Interaction • How comfortably do the youth and parent interact, both verbally and nonverbally? • Who asks and answers most of the questions? • Does the youth express an interest in managing his own health issues (including youth who have special health care needs)?

  17. Parent-Youth Interaction: Teresa • Both parents are immigrants from Vietnam. I was born in the U.S. • I became an early self-advocate due to language barrier; my parents spoke Vietnamese and understood minimal English • In healthcare this meant (at 16 yrs.): • Scheduling my own Doctor’s appointments • Interpreting • Becoming a key decision maker in important healthcare decisions equally with my parents • Begin transition conversation

  18. Taking Charge of Healthcare: Justin • Transition began around the age of 14. • Mom would take me, but would not go into the room. • Began going completely on my own at 16. • Before the appointment, parents would go over the visit with me.

  19. Surveillance of Development: Does the Youth… • Display a sense of self-confidence, hopefulness, and well-being • Demonstrate resiliency when confronted with life stressors • Demonstrate increasingly responsible and independent decision making • Demonstrate physical, cognitive, emotional, social, and moral competencies • Engage in behaviors that promote wellness and contribute to a healthy lifestyle • Form a caring, supportive relationship with family, other adults, and peers • Engage in a positive way in the life of the community

  20. Building Resilience • Nurture disabled and non-disabled friends • Seek family and peer support • Encourage parental support without over-protectiveness • Develop self-perception as not handicapped • Involve in household chores

  21. Six Core Elements of Health Care Transition

  22. #1: Transition Policy “Martha Eliot Health Center is committed to a smooth transition from childhood to adolescence to young adulthood.  This process requires collaboration between patients/families and the medical team.  By age 14 years, all youth in our practice will begin transition planning by moving to an adolescent medicine care model.  By age 18 years, all youth will participate in their own care as adults, with modifications as needed for youth with special needs.  By age 22 years, all patients will receive primary care from an adult medicine provider.”

  23. #1: Transition Policy

  24. #2: Transitioning Youth Registry

  25. #2: Transitioning Youth Registry • Especially critical for CSHCN • But helpful for all transitioning youth • Track by diagnosis, progress • Establish a timeline

  26. #3: Transition Preparation Medical Needs Non-Medical Needs • Patient has opportunity to talk to provider alone • Review of disease-specific guidelines • Review of age-specific guidelines • Checklist in visit notes • Patient is developing self-efficacy • Education-> vocation • Plans for independent living • Plans for adult support services • Legal services
