NICE Guideline NG43 - Transition from children's to adults' services for young people using health or social care services
Source
The named worker is a role rather than a job title. This should be 1 of the people from among the group of workers providing care and support to the young person, who has been designated to take a coordinating role. It could be, for example, a nurse, youth worker, an allied health professional or another health and social care practitioner. It could also be someone who already has the title keyworker, transition worker or personal adviser.
