Number of Kidney Transplant Patients Who Expressed an Understanding of the Term Immunosuppression Medication Adherence and the Importance Immunosuppression Medication Adherence Post Transplant Primary · 4 months

Through a series of focus groups, the investigators will qualitatively explore kidney transplant patients' understanding of the terms immunosuppressant medication adherence and nonadherence. What importance do patients attach to adherence. Do patients understand that nonadherence may effect the outcome of the transplant. The focus groups will identify the common practical and perceptual barriers to adherence identified by transplant patients and the interventions kidney transplant patients have used to try and improve their adherence. The focus groups will identify which interventions patients
