The purpose of this study was to explore perceptions that emerging adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) have of their patient-provider relationships across the transition from pediatric to adult care. Several themes emerged from the analysis including the importance of improving provider approaches to transition. Patients recommended that pediatric providers actively promote emerging adults’ autonomy while maintaining parental support.
