The Development and Content Validation of a Self-reported Instrument to Explore the Nurse's Role in Healthcare Transition Planning for Youth and Young Adults With Chronic Illness and/or Disability (NR-HCTP)

An exploration of nurse's roles in HCTP for YYA with CI/D allows for discussion of current nursing practices in the transition process. The information obtained may be used to identify gaps in knowledge and practice guidelines, develop nursing core elements and educational materials to support nurses in their role, and inform nursing administrators in the development of appropriate HCTP position descriptions.
