Description

Significant barriers to appropriate health care transition of children and youth with special health care needs [CYSHCN] include the comfort level of adult-trained providers with ?pediatric? medical diagnoses, particularly autism spectrum/ intellectual-developmental disorders [ASD/IDDs]. We present a curriculum model for adult providers to deliver the necessary training to promote effective care for adult patients with ASD/IDDs within the framework of the LoneStar LEND Program.
