Abstract

Our hospital provides medical care and rehabilitation for individuals with disabilities. In our hospital, both neurologists and pediatricians have been working on the transition from pediatric to adult healthcare. We used a transition readiness checklist and pediatrician-neurologist transition consultation. We aimed to promote appropriate medical care, community-based healthcare coordination, and welfare services through interprofessional care with other health professionals. We assisted patients and their families in improving self-management and discussed patient issues with their best interests in mind through a shared decision-making process. Recently, the need for neurologists in transitioning patients from pediatric to adult healthcare has been increasing.
