Transition Planning?
• Children with complex medical needs are living longer, often into adulthood, due to improved medical technology
• “Aging out” of a pediatric setting - either inpatient or community
• May be too complicated to be cared for at home for a variety of reasons:
• Overwhelmed by intensive, technology dependent care.
• Limited resources – financial and clinical• Psychosocial situations • Aging parents
