Description

When CAR-T cell therapy is given as an outpatient, patients go home or to nearby lodging instead of staying in the hospital, which places greater responsibility on their caregivers. In this HealthTree video, we explain the clinic schedule, why a caregiver is needed around the clock, and what to monitor at home, including temperature and neurological changes. You'll also learn when to call the care team or 911, when an outpatient may still need to be admitted, and how caregiver responsibilities can change after day 15.
