摘要
The aim of this study was to identify types of family support desired by young adults with eating disorders during the transfer of care from paediatric to adult eating disorders programs. Using constant comparative analysis, two salient themes from qualitative interviews with 15 young adults were identified: (a) uncertainty about the role of parents in maintaining recovery during the transfer; and (b) the need for parental support, defined as assistance with eating and maintenance of recovery. Young adults voiced that parental emotional involvement and assistance with navigating adult care services is critical to their successful transfer between the two systems of care.
