Supporting Youth: Navigating to Adult Healthcare

Mother And Daughter Meeting With Male Teacher

This webinar is for Youth and their Parents/Caregivers to learn about transitioning from pediatric to adult healthcare!
There are significant differences between adult and pediatric health care models. Pediatric care is family oriented and relies on parent involvement in decision making; adult care is guided by the patient and requires independent skills of the patients. Healthcare transition is important for all youth, and it’s important to be prepared.
