The Gillette Children's Pediatric to Adult Healthcare Learning Collaborative Summit will be held Thursday, June 13, from 8:15 am to 4:45 pm at the Holiday Inn & Suites in St. Cloud.
The event, which is designed to transform the youth patient and family experience in pediatric to adult healthcare transition, is the culmination of an eight-month, virtual learning series that brought together a multidisciplinary group to learn about healthcare transition (HCT) and discuss real-time HCT challenges.
The learning series focused on sharing HCT resources and ideas grounded in health equity and trauma-informed principles. The summit builds on this series by bringing together leading experts, stakeholders, healthcare professionals, and others to share best practices, exchange knowledge, and drive advancement in HCT for youth with special health needs.
The summit will offer participants valuable insights into enhancing their clinics, hospitals, programs, and overall state practices related to pediatric to adult HCT. These advancements are urgently needed to support the growing number of youths with special health needs aging into adulthood and to ensure safe HCT from pediatric to adult care systems.
