Fraser Health Authority (FHA)Aim: To enhance the capacity of BC Community Pediatricians to transition/transfer youth with chronic/complex health conditions to adult care (i.e., to family practitioners, adult specialists and/or allied health supports).
Summary: To build an infrastructure for transition of Tier 2 and 3 patients (patients with conditions like autism, ADHD, developmental disabilities, Down’s and other chromosomal syndromes, cerebral palsy, mental illness, and FASD) and to test and evaluate that infrastructure on a focused scale by piloting pairs (community pediatrician and family physician [FP]) and triads (community pediatrician, FP, and adult specialists - with allied health providers if appropriate) to create generic transition planning.
