.... a final word!

We hope this resource package has been useful for you, and would very much like to hear your feedback and suggestions for improvements. The purpose of this site is to provide an opportunity to reflect on how we work with kids and teenagers with arthritis, and the information should not be used in place of a doctor's advice. Working with the child and family, and in conjunction with advice and guidance provided by the doctor and health professionals, is likely to give the best outcome for the child. The child or teenager themselves is a great source of information and experience, and we can all learn a lot from the way they work to overcome the challenges they face with juvenile arthritis.
