READYorNot™ Brain-Based Disabilities Project

Youth with brain-based disabilities (BBD) require seamless transition from the pediatric to adult health care systems. This transition can be disruptive for youth and their families and have a negative impact on a patient’s health. In many pediatric centres, there are no dedicated resources for transition of care.

With the READYorNot™ Brain-Based Disabilities Project, we are developing and evaluating e-health aids to help patients and families take charge of this transition.
