A new toolkit from Got Transition: Pediatric-to-Adult Health Care Transition

by | Mar 31, 2021 | Family Voices

Got Transition and its National Family Health Care Transition Advisory Group have developed a new toolkit for families to use to guide their youth’s transition from pediatric to adult health care. The Family Toolkit includes easy-to-use resources for youth and families to help youth assume more independence in taking care of their own health and using health services. Materials include a transition timeline, questions to ask your doctor, what turning 18 means for one’s health, and more! Got Transition hosted a webinar on October 27th to discuss the toolkit. Watch the hour-long webinar to learn more about the toolkit and hear from a parent of a transition-aged young adult about her transition experience. Watch it here!
