The RPA transplant team moved into its purpose built 'state of the art' transplant facility in July 2003. Situated on Level 9, the facility has a dedicated 24 bed transplant ward which is co-located with an ambulatory care facility, staff offices and education areas. It recognizes the need for continuity of care of the transplant patient and has no peer in Australia. It brings together a multi-disciplinary team of surgeons and physicians from differing specialties, nurses, pharmacists, dietitians, social workers, transplant co-ordinators, patient support groups and administrative staff, all with the common goal of achieving the best possible short and long term results for patients undergoing kidney or liver transplantation.
