Preparing for BMT (Bone Marrow Transplant)

Why is Preparing for BMT important?

India has successfully conducted thousands of Bone Marrow Transplants (BMT) over the years, however for the patient and family it is the first time. Walking into the unknown can create anxiety, fear and vulnerability. Knowledge and right information can help the family feel confident, make informed decisions and step into the process with positivity.

We at Bone Marrow Transplant Support Foundation (BMTSF) have created easy to understand, crisp and easy to browse information that will help patients and caregivers prepare for a successful BMT.  The following flow should allow you to get a basic understanding of the BMT process. There is so much of planning, logistics, arranging finances, finding the right BMT team, etc., that one needs to take out time to understand all the different variables in this complex matrix.
