As medical advances continue to boost survival from life-shortening child-onset diseases, adult and pediatric facilities are getting together to decide where to treat patients nearing their 20th birthdays, according to an article on the Hospitals and Health Networks website.
The question is — regardless of age, where are these patients going to get the best care, and where are they going to feel the most comfortable?
In some cases, hospitals have established programs with a designated clinic or physical space to serve these transitional age groups.
The adult congenital heart clinic based at Intermountain Primary Children’s Hospital was created to help foster such age-related transitions.
