Abstract
Transition of the pediatric patient to an adult provider is a challenge for both patient and provider. Recognition of the role of the family in the adult with a chronic illness can be of great value to the adult provider. The initial visit on transition would be greatly facilitated if a parent accompanies their adult child to help provide the important medical history, often long and complicated, which the adult patient might be unable to provide. There are many challenges to successful transition which will be discussed.
