Transition Coaching
for Juvenile Arthritis
Pediatric patients with Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis or Inflammatory Bowel Disease who are preparing to transition into adult care face many unique challenges, and, to date, there is no comprehensive and implementable model of transition care in Canada or the United States. These patients, in addition to the systemic inflammatory nature of their diseases, are also in a period of immense psycho-social stress due to changes in school structure, employment, and general psycho-social growth. A poorly managed transition can have adverse effects on the quality and experience of care as well as contribute to poor disease outcomes including increased morbidity and even mortality. The goal of this study is to determine the feasibility of using a transition coach intervention to help patients in their transition from pediatric to adult care.
