Patient and Parent Education Needs When Transitioning to Adult Care
The long-term goal is to develop and rigorously test a serious game to build transition readiness skills among AYAs with CHD. The objective of this proposal is to collect qualitative data from key stakeholders (i.e., AYAs with CHD and their parents and/or caregivers) and to design the preliminary learning and pedagogical content for the serious game. The approach is to conduct the first two stages of the Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement, and Evaluate Model of Instructional Design for game development.

ACTIVELY RECRUITING
Our research team needs your expertise to design an engaging and educational video game to help adolescents and young adults learn and practice skills needed for lifelong congenital heart disease (CHD) care. This game will help patients with CHD to develop essential transition readiness skills so that they can effectively manage their care, self-advocate, and navigate complex healthcare systems as an adult.
