Education of the young adult and empowering them to manage their own health is at the core of successful transition from paediatric to adult health services.  The model of care at Monash Health is presented with examples of patients attending our service.  The challenges of rare genetic bone diseases, chronic diseases of childhood such as cerebral palsy, and disorders of puberty are discussed.
