Zorgpreferenties en competenties van jongeren met een chronische ziekte of beperking op weg naar hun volwassenheid
Aanleiding en achtergrond
Steeds meer kinderen met ernstige chronische ziektes en beperkingen overleven en worden volwassen. Jongeren met een chronische ziekte zijn op zoek naar hun eigen identiteit en maken soms keuzes die hun kwetsbare gezondheid kunnen schaden. Zorgverleners uit de kinderzorg en de volwassenenzorg melden veel problemen met jongeren, variërend van onvoldoende zelfstandigheid tot onvoldoende therapietrouw. Er zijn aanwijzingen dat de zorg in de adolescentieperiode niet is afgestemd op de behoeften van adolescenten en dat deze niet optimaal is georganiseerd. Vooral de voorbereiding van jongeren op hun volwassenwording (zelfmanagement, maatschappelijke participatie, regie over eigen leven en toekomst) en de onderlinge afstemming en coördinatie van zorg schieten te kort. De benodigde competenties (kennis en vaardigheden) van jongeren om als volwassen zorggebruiker te kunnen functioneren en de eigen regie te voeren over het leven met de ziekte worden in de zorgverlening onvoldoende systematisch ontwikkeld.
Daarbij komt dat in deze periode ook de overgang naar de volwassenenzorg, die meestal rond het 18e levensjaar plaatsvindt, moet worden voorbereid. In de praktijk verloopt deze vaak ad hoc, waarbij gebrek aan samenwerking, afstemming en continuïteit eerder regel dan uitzondering is. Jongeren, ouders én zorgverleners in de pediatrie en volwassenenzorg geven aan veel problemen te ervaren bij deze transitie in zorg. Toch is over de preferenties (voorkeuren) van jongeren over de inrichting van de adolescentenzorg weinig bekend. | Translation - English
Preferences for care and competencies of adolescents suffering from chronic conditions or (physical) limitations
Cause and background
An increasing number of children suffering from severe chronic conditions and (physical) limitations survive and reach adulthood. Chronically ill adolescents are seeking their own identity and sometimes make decisions that may be detrimental to their fragile health. Health professionals in paediatric and adult care report many problems with adolescents, varying from insufficient independence to insufficient compliance. Indications exist that health care during adolescence is not keyed to the needs of adolescents and not optimally organized. Particularly, the process of preparing adolescents for adulthood (self-management, social participation, empowerment of their own life and future) is out of key with co-ordination of care. Competencies of adolescents required to function as an adult health care consumer and to independently manage their disease are developed insufficiently systematic in health care.
In addition, the transition to adult health care, which usually takes place around the age of 18, should be prepared during adolescence. In practice, however, this transition often goes ad hoc, and lack of cooperation, co-ordination and continuity is the rule rather than the exception. Adolescents, parents and health professionals in paediatric and adult care mention many problems by experience in this transition in care. However, there is little knowledge of adolescent preferences for the organization of adolescent care.

Also highly experienced in editing texts related to oncology and scientific research; familiar with (oncological) dental surgery and rheumatology texts.
In addition, I am fully qualified to teach English to adults (CELTA certificate; e.g. expats from non-English speaking countries).
I started my own company in 2005 (IDEE Linguistic Services). From September 2006 until July 2009 I had a partnership firm with Terry Ezra (a native speaker of English), called "TISZO & ID Translations".
Terry has a bachelor's degree in 'Dutch Studies' (B.A. (Hons.)) and a master's degree in Cultural Policy and Administration.
In 2006 and 2007 I was employed as an in-house translator at Rotterdam University (Hogeschool Rotterdam, The Netherlands), where I translated the diploma supplements of all the 80 + study programmes available at this University of Applied Sciences. This also included translating the approx. 20,000 course/subject names (often without any context).
Prior to my translation activities, I worked as an editor at two research departments in the Daniel den Hoed Kliniek (an oncology centre in Rotterdam, The Netherlands), for 17 years.
