Transplant support groups, whether in person or online, can help you connect with others who know exactly what you're going through and how you're feeling. Share your challenges. Speak your fears out loud. And celebrate every victory, big and small. Beyond emotional support, our patients have found that support groups can serve as a unique forum to exchange ideas and information about everything from maintaining a healthy diet to learning about financial assistance resources.
Our Transplant Support Group
Our support group is available to both patients awaiting transplantation and recipients. Meetings are scheduled regularly, providing newsworthy information, social activities and opportunities for volunteer involvement. Patients and their caregivers can listen to guest speakers, share experiences, voice concerns and volunteer to help others.
To get a meeting schedule and register for an upcoming session, contact our social worker:
