Families with children/youth with special health care needs: Have you thought about planning for medical transitions?
The Goal of Transition
Improve the health-related quality of life of all young people with chronic illness or disability and enable them to reach their true potential.
Which means ...
To grow up healthy and able to fully participate and enjoy life!
Families must start early
Youth with special health care needs or disabilities and their families need to plan their medical transition just as they do their educational transition. Early and intentional planning helps transitioning to adult medical services as successful as possible.
