Nurses in a transplant team are responsible for providing pre-operative and post-operative care to patients undergoing organ or tissue transplants. They work closely with other healthcare professionals, such as surgeons, anesthesiologists, and social workers, to ensure comprehensive care. Nurses assess patient needs, administer medications, monitor vital signs, and educate patients and their families about the transplant process. They also coordinate care and ensure that patients adhere to post-transplant care plans.
