When children enter adolescence, they often start making more decisions about their lives, including decisions related to their health. However, many adolescent patients have not learned how to manage their disease nor received the support they need to transition to adult care. This webinar will highlight peer-to-peer support as a resource for adolescents transitioning to adult care. A research study focused on the iPeer2Peer mentorship program for heart transplant patients will be shared as an example. Topics covered:- Self-management and transition to adult care issues for patients - How peer support and mentorship can assist patients transitioning to adult care- How to locate peer support in the cardiomyopathy community
