Fewer black kidney donors: what's the problem?
Soc Work Health Care.
1995.
Abstract
This article describes a qualitative study which explored the factors that influence relatives' decisions about donating kidneys for transplantation within a specific minority culture, i.e., African-American, in the United States. The researchers interviewed caregiving relatives of End Stage Renal Disease patients to learn their ideas and feelings about donation and transplantation. Data analysis revealed six themes; each theme is presented with relevant social work activities.
