Stockport diabetes is delighted to be successful in being selected as a site for the newly launched national Transition and Young Adult Care (TYA) Project Pilot, with all the exciting opportunities and potential this brings.  
This national project is part of the joint NHS Diabetes and CYP Transformation Programme to improve care and outcomes for children and young adults, living with diabetes, age 16 – 25 years. The role is until March 2025. Key areas of focus for this programme are improving care for those transitioning from paediatric to adult care and addressing the poorer outcomes for children and young adults with diabetes at transition age.
As a Pilot Site we have received funding to enable us to build the evidence base with regards to providing clinically effective TYA models.
The Service Specification for this TYA Pilot is a clinically led consensus approved by the National Children, Young Adults and Diabetes Oversight Group. The national vision for the pilots is that this model service specification will be implemented by all sites as a minimum standard.
There is the welcome expectation we develop innovative models of care; guided by patient led feedback and supported by different disciplines such as psychology practitioners and youth workers.
To achieve the aims of the Pilot Project we are recruiting dynamic, enthusiastic and forward-thinking multidisciplinary professionals who have experience and knowledge of working with young adults with diabetes.
