Transplant patients may develop PTSD due to the life-threatening nature of their illness, medical trauma, fear of organ rejection, and emotional challenges like survivor’s guilt and loss of control. These experiences can deeply affect both patients and caregivers, leading to emotional and behavioral challenges. Join us to explore PTSD in transplant patients, learn to recognize its signs, and discover strategies to strengthen resilience.
