Waiting for a Transplant
The waiting period can last anywhere from several
days to several months. If you are able to wait
at home and are on an intravenous medication,
you will be given a beeper so we can reach you
when a donor heart becomes available.
It is important to arrange transportation to
the hospital for the transplant during the time
you are listed. You will usually have two to three
hours to get to the hospital. If you have a question
about your situation, please ask the transplant
coordinator.
