PRINCIPAL RESPONSIBILITIES:To oversee the implementation of National Institute for Health and Social Care Excellence (NICE) Quality Statements for transition for children and young people, aged 18-25, between CYP to AMHS and AMHS to AMHS services.Young people who will move from children to adults services start planning their transition with health and social care practitioners by school year 9 (aged 13 to 14, or immediately if they enter childrens services after school year 9.Young people who will move from children to adults services have a coordinated transition plan.Young people who will move from children to adults services have an annual meeting to review transition planning.Young people who are moving from children to adults services have a named worker to coordinate care and support before, during and after transfer.Young people who are moving from children to adults services meet a practitioner from each adults service they will move to before the transfer.Young people who have moved from children to adults services but do not attend their initial meetings or appointments are contacted by adults services and given further opportunities to engage.To oversee and implement the principles of transition as identified below:Transition support should be person centred and ensure they are an equal partner in the planning of their care choosing pathways which meet their needs.Transition support should be strength based and focuses on what is positive and possible for the young adult and their carer/family.Assessment and planning should focus on goals with the young adult, which may include education and employment, community inclusion, health and well-being and housing needs.Carers and families need to be at the centre of transition planning, but it is important to ask the young adult how they would like their carer/family to be involved in the transition.Transition should be based on need not age.Ensure transition support is developmentally appropriate and considers the persons maturity, cognitive abilities, psychological status, long term conditions, social and personal circumstances, caring responsibilities and communication needs.Where the young person is autistic and/or has a learning disability along with a co-morbid mental health need, the transition processes and associated assessments and interventions should be reasonably adjusted to meet the young persons needs.Young adults absolutely should not be forgotten or forced to begin the assessment/transition process again. Young adults may need to be able to dip in and out of services there needs to be flexibility and understanding in the system for did not attend (DNA).Health and social care services should work together in an integrated way to ensure smooth transition, avoiding the proliferation of separate plans for specific sectors.Consideration of special education needs and education health care plans.
