Youth in Transition
At Alberta Children's Hospital, we say goodbye to hundreds of youth each year as
they turn 18 and transition to adult medical care. If you're entering your teens, it won't be long before
you're following in their footsteps. Are you ready?
We believe the key to being ready is to start learning at an early age how to manage
your own healthcare needs. This website, designed for youth 12 and up, will help you do just that. It offers
tips on taking charge of your own healthcare, gives you the 411 on what adult care is like, and highlights
supports and resources available in the community.
In addition, there's a special Becoming Independent section to answer the many questions
we receive from youth with chronic health conditions and/or disabilities.
We find youth who know what to expect are better prepared to take charge of their future!
