Most family members are involved with various clinic visits prior to getting listed for a liver transplant. They have access to a social worker, case manager, psychologist, priest, and a dedicated nurse. Attending the clinic appointments, having conversations with various team members, and listening in on the conversations would help you provide the best care to your loved one who's undergoing a liver transplant. After the transplant, your family member may not be in the best position to manage their medications. It's very important that a family member is involved to increase their medication compliance to almost one hundred percent, particularly with anti-rejection medications. In the immediate post-transplant phase, there will be several medication changes, and they have to be closely followed by a family member and the patient who undergoes the transplant.
