Abstract:
The specific role of patient coordinator varies among different transplantation centers. Their role is often dependent upon the total number of patients that are being followed at a given center. With continued success of a program and continued patient survival, the functions of the patient coordinator will increase. However, the coordinator's primary mission will remain principally that of patient educator and liaison with the transplant center.
