INTEGRATION OF YOUNG PEOPLE IN THE AGED CARE FACILITIES
Assessment Part 1:
Stark, D., Bielack, S., Brugieres, L., Dirksen, U., Duarte, X., Dunn, S., ... &
Kabickova, E. (2016). Teenagers and young adults with cancer in Europe:
from national programmes to a European integrated coordinated project.
European journal of cancer care, 25(3), 419-427.
The Research is based on the rising and spreading of Cancer. Cancer is now
diagnosed in almost every age group. People are getting affected by Cancer every now and
then, hence the awareness and the sectors of the health is of the opinion that they should treat
them as patients only irrespective of divining them in various age groups and treat them
accordingly. This is because Cancer is a very fatal and harmful disease which can spread very
fast and also leads to death of the patient if not treatment is provided fast. The European
Union (EU) has come up with the shocking number of 14000 for the young adults ranging
from the age limits 15-24, getting affected by Cancer. The text summarises the European
National Projects in the field of Cancer. Scientific meetings are held by the European
Network of Cancer Research in Children and Adolescents Programme (ENCCA) within the
EU 7th Funding Programme (FP7). A very special European Network which is working for
the cure of the Teenagers and the Young Adults having Cancer has brought up unanswered
research questions ultimately leading to the collaboration of the adult and paediatric services,
to diminish the gaps and the problems that arises for treating and managing the teenagers and
young adults having cancer.

Dahourou, D. L., Gautier‐Lafaye, C., Teasdale, C. A., Renner, L.,
Yotebieng, M., Desmonde, S., ... & Leroy, V. (2017). Transition from
paediatric to adult care of adolescents living with HIV in sub‐Saharan
Africa: challenges, youth‐friendly models, and outcomes. Journal of the
International AIDS Society, 20, 21528.
The number of people who are affected by the HIV is increasing day by day. There
have been lots of people who are still under surveillance for having HIV positive prenatally
or behaviourally acquired. It is increase mostly in the financially unstable countries,
especially in the sub-Saharan Africa. The existence of HIV is high and therefore the
treatment of it is becoming problematic as is now affecting mostly the young adults as well
as, middle aged or older adults, hence the authors have highlighted that the situation needs to
be looked into and that the matter involves the linking or also assistance and cooperation of
the paediatric or the adult care units for the better treatment and analysis of the problems and
diseases. This very mode is called “transition of care” buy the authors. The paper highlights
the people who are in need of the treatment and also several people who face problems for
the challenges of the population and settings and the different models of care for transition.
The authors have used PubMed bibliographic database, HIV conference content, and grey
literature from January 2000 to August 2016. All these are well researched and the authors
draw their inference from these research works.

Porter, S., McConnell, T., McLaughlin, K., Lynn, F., Cardwell, C.,
Braiden, H. J., ... & Clinician, L. (2017). Music therapy for children and
adolescents with behavioural and emotional problems: a randomised
controlled trial. Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 58(5), 586-
594.
The music therapy is now a leading mode of treatment in the modern time. It is
mostly used for the children with mental health issues and also suffering from depression and
repressed anger and sadness. Patients like these children who are falling under the age group
of 15 to 25 years are treated along with the adults as they are falling under adulthood and also
the required treatment for them which can only be done and met if they are treated according
to their age and taste. Considering them as little children is wrong on the other had they are
young adults hence considering them as fully grown and matured adults will also not be right
as well. Therefore they are treated in a different way. And since it is a very sensible issue
therefore care is taken along with granting priority to the age. In Northern Ireland 12 weekly
sessions of Music Therapy plus usual care were given to the adolescents.
