As our patients grow older, Connecticut Children’s Medical Center aims to prepare adolescents and young adults for independent healthy lives. Our Transitional Care program focuses on urologic conditions which may require life-long care, with the goal of empowering our patients to learn about their condition and individualized health needs. We partner with urologists and nephrologists in the community at Hartford Healthcare and UConn Health to allow for smooth transition into adult care.
