Abstract
Coordinating health care transition across care settings is a national core competency for nurse practitioner education. Caring for children and youth with special health care needs requires a collaborative approach to transition from a child-centered to an adult-focused care model. Adding this content is challenging, given the gaps in the health care transition literature and inconsistent faculty expertise. This report describes one university’s innovative quality improvement project aimed at developing competency in health care transition for children and youth with special health care needs among nurse practitioner students. The design, implementation, and evaluation of teaching strategies that resulted in significant knowledge gain for students are reported.
