For Parents and Carers
Transition from paediatric to adult health services is a time of significant change and may be stressful for both the young person and their families. As a parent/carer you have to cope with your own challenges as you encourage your child to look after their own health care and become independent. Your involvement in your son/daughter’s transition is important as it will help you to support them during this time of change. The links below are for a wide range of information and resources to assist you as a parent or carer during the time of your child's transition. For further information, you can talk to your son or daughter's treating doctor or members of their health care team or contact the Adolescent Transition Program.
