Abstract

<p>Pediatric allergic diseases often transition into adulthood, necessitating specialized support during this critical phase. This support involves the simultaneous development of medical care and fostering of independence (autonomy). Given the complexity of allergic diseases, which are often associated with multiple disorders, adults with these conditions frequently need to engage with various departments.</p><p>The scarcity of specialists catering to adults in food allergies complicates the seamless transition of patients to different departments. Achieving independence (autonomy) support requires the acquisition of health literacy and a shift toward medical care that respects the right to self-determination. Specifically addressing food allergies, a comprehensive program is essential for affected children. This program aims to enhance the understanding of allergen labels and empower them to self-administer adrenaline self-injection medications during emergencies. The Allergy Center is a crucial hub in ensuring a seamless and comprehensive transition for individuals with pediatric allergic diseases into the complexities of adult medical care. This involves medical considerations and a broader support network encompassing various facets of life. In transition support, the center is expected to share information to facilitate a smooth transition from pediatric to adult medicine. Furthermore, it should actively contribute to support initiatives related to independence (autonomy), welfare, schooling, and employment, drawing on the expertise of various professions.</p>
