Patient Zone: The Transplant Journey

  


Learning the Route
  

Managing the Journey 

      

Life is turned upside down when you need a transplant.

Where to get good medical care is just one decision to make.

You can count on getting the best of care at Johns Hopkins Medical Institution, a world-class hospital, the Best of the Best for more 12 years.

But in addition to providing great medical care, the Johns Hopkins Comprehensive Transplant Center offers significant informational and emotional support for patients.

As a patient you will receive newsletters, attend educational seminars, patient conferences, and social events, such as the annual picnic and holiday party. If you wish, you can be assigned a transplant mentor, someone who can support you through the process.

Your medical professionals are the best resources for answers to medical questions, but we know there is a lot of other information you want to know, too.

It can be difficult to cope sometimes. The road you're on is unfamiliar. To address this need at Hopkins, the transplant team includes social workers and a transplant psychologist.  Also, there are caregivers, donors and patients who have already experienced the transplant journey and are willing to help you.
