Abstract
Results: Perpetuation of stigma, autonomy and decision-making were central themes as both enablers and deterrents of successful transition. The tension between professional (and at times parental) paternalism and young persons’ growing autonomy was well captured in the themes; (a) desired practice, (b) who should decide, (c) the process of decision-making and (d) potential harm(s). Conclusions: This study provides insight into the ethical values, particularly autonomy and collaboratively working, which people expect to underpin the transition between CAMHS and AMHS
