Advocacy is a key component of the nursing role in transplant teams. Nurses advocate for patients by ensuring they receive the care and resources needed for a successful transplant outcome. This includes securing access to financial, emotional, and social support services. Nurses also play a role in policy advocacy by supporting legislation that improves organ donation rates and transplant outcomes.
In conclusion, nurses are integral members of transplant teams, providing critical care, education, and support to both donors and recipients. Their expertise and dedication contribute significantly to the success of transplant procedures and the ongoing well-being of patients.
