Phase N/A

Study Purpose: This research is exploring how health coaching can help caregivers feel less stressed when taking care of someone waiting for a heart or lung transplant.

What You'll Do: If you join, you might be randomly chosen to receive weekly 30-minute phone calls for 12 weeks, or you might continue with usual care. You'll fill out questionnaires at the start and end of the study.

  • Time Commitment: You will participate for 12 weeks, with weekly phone calls lasting 30 minutes.
  • Eligibility: You must be 18 or older, the main caregiver for someone on the heart or lung transplant waiting list at Mayo Clinic in Rochester or Jacksonville, FL, and English-speaking.
  • Exclusions: You cannot join if you are under 18, do not speak English, or have difficulties with hearing or speaking.

This study helps researchers understand if phone coaching can support caregivers like you.
