This book offers knowledge about interventions and actions that enable and promote transition experiences for adolescents and youth. It provides guidance on appropriate strategies that involve the adolescents and caregivers in transition preparation and those which optimize adolescents' abilities to assume self-management in their healthcare.

The health care transition for adolescents has gained more attention given the improved survival rates, including for those with long-term conditions. It is now estimated that more than 90% of children diagnosed with a long-term condition will survive into adulthood. Yet, given the significant change in survival rates necessitating services to facilitate their transfer to adult health care and transition to adulthood, research reveals that providers indicate their needs for learning to provide health care transition services. A recent US national survey demonstrated only 10% of parents/caregivers reported that their children received transition preparation services.

This book is targeted at nurses and pediatric and adult health care providers of different disciplines seeking guidance on which interventions are available, how they can be used, advantages and challenges, and how best to promote a seamless transition for all adolescents with long-term conditions. It provides several examples of transition programmes and initiatives worldwide. There is an increasing focus on how nurses can support transition but little guidance on what is effective and what has been tried. This book will fill a gap by addressing all of these issues outlined above and by providing worked examples from leading nurse researchers and academics worldwide.
