2nd point is emergency management
🔹 around 88% of paediatric patients have an emergency care plan vs 56% of adults.
🔹 development of on-going management plans
#SiLVaH2022 #homemechanicalventilation
🔹We need to discuss consider adult physiology and build in changes to adult care pre - transition
🔹how to we challenge non-engagement- specific policies which differ from standard practice
🔹transition is a monumental change - how can we fund to support #SiLVaH2022
Great point from Jemma Price - transition is not simply a transfer. We need:
🔹discussion with all professionals and patient
🔹 a bespoke transition including environment - visits
🔹 understanding additional needs including clinic time - dedicated longer slots
