Supporting Patients Through Organ Failure: Mental Health Intake Made Compassionate

Facing organ failure is one of life's most profound challenges. Patients must navigate complex medical decisions, emotional turmoil, and shifting family dynamics—all while processing fear, grief, and uncertainty about the future. This Organ Failure Mental Health Intake Form template helps mental health professionals, therapists, and counselors gather essential information to provide compassionate, personalized support during this critical time.

Designed for Mental Health Providers Supporting Medical Populations

This intake form is built specifically for therapists, psychologists, social workers, and counselors who work with patients experiencing organ failure. Whether you're part of a hospital's behavioral health team, a private practice specializing in medical psychology, or a palliative care support service, this template helps you quickly understand each patient's unique medical situation, treatment preferences, emotional state, and support network.

The form covers critical areas including:

• Current organ failure diagnosis and medical team information
• Treatment options being considered (transplant, dialysis, palliative care)
• Quality versus quantity of life values and decision-making priorities
• Family dynamics, caregiver relationships, and support systems
• Current mental health symptoms and coping strategies
• Cultural, spiritual, and religious considerations in care
