Hi Emily, I have more information for you. 🙂
Generally, when patients are going through transplant evaluation the social work visit is part of the evaluation and can be scheduled at any point during the evaluation process. You can always contact the social work team by phone 480-342-1010 and ask to speak the social worker responsible for the organ group, in your case - liver. The call center will notify the social worker who will contact you directly.
Additionally, you are invited to join the Transplant Caregiver Support Group. They meet on Zoom the 1ST and 3RD Friday of every month at 11am-12pm AZ time.
The group is for caregivers, so we respectfully ask that patients not attend. This is a virtual meeting. No registration is required and feel free to come to any group you can make.

Rosemary, Got it. That is the day we’ll learn if she is a candidate. I will join the group then.
Thank you for this link.
So far, I am her support and welcome finding someone who can support me. At my home, there is frustration that I am not available to them. They want someone else to step up instead of me. This saddens me and causes me to not talk to family about what I am experiencing at the consultations for my cousin.
