The role of health advocacy in transitions from pediatric to adult care for children with special health care needs: bridging families, provider and community services.
The aim of this study was to develop a theoretical understanding of how family, healthcare providers, and community supports can assist youth and young adults with special healthcare needs (YASHCN) during the transition from pediatric to adult healthcare and services. Transition Advocacy consists of the presence of, or need for, a healthcare advocate who did or can assist the YASHCN with the healthcare transition, particularly to navigate complex health or community services. If advocates were identified, youth were more likely to obtain needed services.
