Re: PATEINT SELECTION

[Guest guest]

We have an class that all potential recipients must attend. It is roughly 2

hours. Our dietition, LMSW and senior coordinator teach this class. At the end

all patients are given an appt for their financial/psycho social and nurse

coordinator interview, which is usually a couple of weeks out. The nurse

coordinator goes from there scheduling the patients work up. We sometimes will

have patients drop out before attending the class. Some will drop out after the

class and before the interview. Once they make it thru the interview most stick

with it.

I am wondering if someone would share how your program proceeds with possible

kidney transplant patients after orientation.

Does the TXFC call the patients for their decision of moving forward with the

tx. Our team is thinking about asking the patients to call us two days after

origination with their decision. We are wanting to trim time off our work load

by working the patient who truly interested in having a t x. Your input is

welcome.

Thank you. Joyce L.
