When children with complex and chronic conditions age out of the pediatric system, do you know how to help them in the adult outpatient arena? When they present with an orthopedic issue do you know enough about their co-morbid diagnosis to give them the best care?
This new series will highlight conditions that are commonly seen throughout the lifespan.
The spring meeting is the first in the series where we will be discussing Cerebral Palsy and Cystic Fibrosis. During this course you will learn about commonalities that can be seen between the two pertaining to treatment at various times during the lifespan. For example, parent education on prognosis for younger children, prevention/proactive maintenance, pelvic floor issues, orthopedic issues, equipment, etc.
