Workshop on female patients’ experiences of organ transplantation
There are challenges that are unique to female patients as they go through the organ transplant process. A research team at the University of Edinburgh are carrying out a study, funded by NHS Blood and Transplant, to gain a greater understanding of their experiences and needs at different stages of this process and identify where and how improvements can be made to address these.
They are inviting healthcare professionals who treat or support transplant patients to express interest in participating in an online workshop. At the workshop, they will present findings from their qualitative survey on female transplant patients’ experiences and needs, asking staff to work together to discuss the findings and identify key priority areas for action to ensure that these are addressed to improve the experience for female patients.
