Distress in Organ Transplantation: Impacts on Patients, Families, and Medical Teams
Transplant patients and their families may experience significant distress throughout the transplant process. Similarly, transplant staff who are directly involved in transplant patient care can also experience distress or burnout. During this webinar, we will discuss what these stressors may look like, review the psychosocial issues experienced in each phase of transplant, and how to recognize and support patients and their caregivers.
