It can be challenging for young adults to build confidence by taking charge of their health care journey – but #TeamCVS has some great advice ⤵️ 🗣️ “Transitioning a pediatric patient into adult care… is quite daunting for an adolescent” said Lucille Accetta, Chief Pharmacy Officer, CVS Health. 💡 Parents can help adolescents take small steps like learning how to use digital tools for pharmacy needs or making appointments on their own. 💊 For those with chronic conditions, building a relationship with their local pharmacist can be key to a successful transition.
