ISN-IPNA – “Across the Lifespan” Joint Webinars: Adolescents and Young Adults Transition Masterclass 1/2

The transition of care for Adolescents and Young Adults (AYA) with kidney disorders from pediatric to adult providers is best seen as a process that evolves over the years and involves developing self-management skills related to kidney care in AYA.  This presentation will provide a primer for key concepts involved in successful transition processes and include a useful glossary for those involved in the care of AYA with kidney disorders.  Useful outcomes for a successful transition for these AYA and for formal transition programs for these AYA will also be outlined.

2. Describe key tools that are effective in the assessment and promotion of transition for AYA with kidney disorders.
