This course is split into six sessions:

  • Session 1 introduces normal development in adolescents in key biological, psychological and social domains, and the impact of these upon their health and illness. The importance of psychosocial development for chronic disease self-management and concordance is also discussed.
  • Session 2 introduces key concepts relating to puberty such as: potential issues, biological changes, Tanner stages and timings. The onset of the reproductive function and the pubertal growth spurt are also discussed.
  • Session 3 discusses the five Tanner Stages that boys and girls go through in pubertal development.
  • Session 4 reviews the reciprocal impact of changes in psychological development in adolescence including cognitive, emotional and behavioural development. The session will also consider what impact these developmental changes have on self-management of chronic illness during adolescence.
  • Session 5 reviews the reciprocal impact of changes in social development in adolescence. The session will also consider what impact these developmental changes have on self management of chronic illness during adolescence.
  • Session 6 will help you review both personal and accepted definitions of adolescence. It will discuss the physical, social, cognitive, emotional and behavioural changes that take place during this developmental stage.

A four stage assessment tool will be described that can be used to determine where a young person is in relation to early, middle or late adolescent development.

eIntegrity programmes are developed by NHS Health Education England’s e-Learning for Healthcare programme (HEE e-LfH). 

The programmes are high quality self-directed learning programmes.  They are designed to support training and CPD and are excellent resources alongside other traditional teaching methodologies.  They have been developed by the UK NHS for use in the NHS.  However, many of the programmes have international relevance, particularly the specialty training programmes which are often mapped to UK specialty training curricula.
