Résumé

Patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) often bring education-related concerns to their medical teams. Concerns around the ability for CF care teams to identify and address these concerns exist. We sought to describe CF care team perceptions of (1) patient and family education-related needs, (2) how these needs are identified, documented and addressed, and (3) education-related resource gaps. A survey was emailed to pediatric care teams in the CF Foundation Care Center Network in April 2022. Individuals or care teams could complete the survey. Responses were aggregated for descriptive analysis. Sixty-seven programs responded representing 52% of United States pediatric CF centers. Most centers (88%) indicated social workers primarily address school concerns. Care teams often complete school forms (99%), coach families to communicate with schools (96%), communicate with schools directly (90%), and develop educational plans (76%). Formal education risk assessment and support programs are relatively uncommon (19%). Common student-specific needs include carrying medications (75%) and leaving class for gastrointestinal issues (54%). Needs reported are informational materials for families and schools (94%), staff education about school concerns and how to address them (91%), additional staff for education-related issues (65%), and expertise in education plan development (62%). CF care teams often lack comprehensive resources to identify and address education-related concerns. Systematically performing needs assessments, improving training for providers, and evaluating the benefits of education specialists on care teams may better identify and address education-related needs. Supporting educational progression will foster continued independence and well-being in adulthood.
