Pediatric Transplant Discharge Readiness: Parent Perspectives to Practical Application

Wednesday, June 12, 2024 - 1:00 PM (Local time in Montreal)
Local time (Corresponding local time at your current location)
The duration of this presentation is scheduled for 60 minutes.

Overview

To be proficient with transplant related care, patients and families require a significant amount of education during their transplant hospitalization to support the high-level management required once they are discharged. We will hear from a post-liver transplant parent’s perspective on her experiences with discharge education and transition to home as well as how she continues to mentor and advocate for family-centered care and education. Utilizing similar parent experiences, we will showcase a pediatric transplant center’s experience in developing a comprehensive post-transplant discharge education process which has allowed families and caregivers to leave the hospital confident in their child’s ongoing fundamental transplant needs and overall care.

Learning Objectives

  • Discuss parent education needs and expectations for transplant discharge education.
  • Discuss how to develop a core discharge education team to provide consistency in education and reinforcement of discharge content to ensure a successful transition home.
  • Review tools and strategies used to develop a comprehensive transplant discharge education process for patients and caregivers.
