Dr. Rob December 1, 2023

• Develop a transition and care policy/guide with input from young adults that describes the practice’s approach to transition, accepting and partnering with new young adult patients, and an adult approach to care in terms of privacy and consent

. • Educate all staff about the practice’s approach to transition and distinct roles of the young adult, parent/caregiver, and adult health care team in the transition process, taking into account cultural preferences .

• Display transition and care policy/guide somewhere accessible in practice space, discuss and share with young adult at first visit, and regularly review as part of ongoing care.
