The NMDP Survivorship Program

This program offers free support and services to patients, caregivers and providers after a blood or marrow transplant (BMT).

Survivorship includes a person’s physical, mental, emotional, social and spiritual health after a significant life event, such as a BMT. It begins at diagnosis and continues through end of life.

Each person’s journey is unique. The Survivorship team at NMDP wants to support you in your journey to encourage a good quality of life and overall well-being. Our goal is to help patients thrive in their survivorship journey.

Our Survivorship team will:

• Listen closely to your experiences and answer questions to the best of our abilities
• Connect you to resources and educational materials specific to your needs
• Offer telehealth appointments with our medical staff (appointments not available in AL, AK, CA, CT, DC, GA, HI, LA, MA, MS, NC, PA, SC, WV)

Our 6-month (Opens in a new tab) and 12-plus-month (Opens in a new tab) post-transplant care guides outline recommended screenings and tests. These guides are intended to help you prepare for your upcoming appointment(s) and provide a space for you to organize thoughts, concerns or questions for your provider.

An NMDP patient coordinator will contact you to inquire about your transplant journey. They’ll review our free resources from the NMDP Patient Support Center and can schedule a telehealth appointment with our medical staff for you. During that visit, our staff will answer questions, review the post- transplant care guides and discuss any concerns you have.
