Show Notes

Individuals from all over the country come to Cleveland seeking medical care, including organ transplantation. When you’re in a strange city, the transplant journey can be especially overwhelming.

Transplant House of Cleveland provides a home-away-from-home for patients in the evaluation process for transplant, on the waiting list, and post-transplant. Annette Humberson, LISW at Transplant House, shares why it is so much more than a place to sleep. You will also hear from a guest, Katelyn Lambert, staying at Transplant House while waiting for an intestinal transplant.
