Register for this event

Join us for an interactive online session about the kidney transplant process and waitlist.

This session is intended for patients, caregivers, family and healthcare providers - but anyone who is interested is welcome!

This session will outline the kidney transplant process for recipients - from referral, to assessment to the transplant waitlist. In addition to a live Q & A, speakers will address common questions about the process, including:

• How do I know if I'm eligible for a kidney transplant?
• How do I know if I'm on the waitlist? Once I've been referred, am I on the waitlist?
• Is there a waitlist for living organ donation?
• How is the waitlist managed? Who is prioritized?
• How long will I be waiting for a kidney to become available? What factors influence wait time?
