Young people
Moving On Up
Becoming an adult brings all kinds of new responsibilities. For
young
people with type 1 diabetes this also includes learning to live
well with their diabetes.
Moving On Up is a resource designed
specifically for young people with type 1 diabetes and their
parents or guardians, about the transition from paediatric to adult
health care services.
Focusing on the challenges and opportunities that young people
face as they become young adults this booklet covers how they can
live well with their diabetes through this time, the
responsibilities they have for their own diabetes care and the
support they can expect to receive.
More information, support and resources for young people can be
found on the NDSS website.
