Transplant Case Management will help you succeed with understanding your current health journey and navigating your relationship with your transplant team.  By receiving resources, tools and knowledge necessary for success, you will feel more capable of handling conditions that your transplant or living donor team may require.  Some of the things that people need help with may include:

• Education related to transplant or living donation including: what you need to prepare for your transplant or living donor consultations, how to best prepare for your transplant or living donor consultations, what you may be required to complete and gain a better understanding of why. Increase your understanding of what to expect while waitlisted and after you receive your transplant.
• Helping you identify and communicate to your healthcare providers your individual cultural, spiritual and religious preferences.
• Items to work on to maintain your health while waitlisted and how you can work on those.
• Setting up an online campaign to find a living donor.
• Medication Assistance Programs.
• Insurance coverage related issues.
• Financial management to prepare for increased healthcare expenses.
• Planning for being transplanted or donating far away from where you live.
• Preparing for a second opinion at another transplant center.
• Advance Care Planning (ex. Living Will, Healthcare Power of Attorney, long-term care planning for dependents if your health declines).
• Referrals to additional services like: substance use disorder treatment, mental health, legal.
• Understanding different levels of care post hospital discharge and what you may or may not be eligible for.
