They won’t be children forever: the transition from pediatric to adult care

On this episode of Raising Rare we talk with Neil Ead, a 40 year veteran of the nursing field who has focused his career on pediatrics and more specifically chronic care. Neil discuses with our cohosts the importance of preparing in advance for the transition from pediatrics to adult care. This process includes finding replacements for most to all members of the care team and how hard this can be for the team members and the family.
