This book provides a guide to the
complexities of medical care through adolescence and into adulthood. The

developmentally appropriate adolescent health care are discussed and
evaluated. The academic importance of understanding long-term outcomes
of treatments and diseases that began in childhood is also covered.
This
book aims to help readers build a multidisciplinary transition team and
details the barriers encountered in this process and the ways to
overcome them.
