Description

This study will explore the experiences of kidney transplant recipients and health professionals, perceived barriers to transplantation and ways in which patient experiences could be improved. This data will inform the design of an intervention for the proposed new kidney transplant service for northern Queensland, which will be implemented and evaluated using a prospective cohort study. The expected outcome of this study is that the intervention will influence the development and provision of clinical services for the northern Queensland kidney transplant service, improving patient experiences and clinical outcomes.
