Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This study is being done to evaluate the effectiveness of a Sun Protection Strategies workbook for kidney transplant recipients. Since the medication taken to preserve the kidney transplant puts kidney transplant recipients at an increased risk of developing skin cancer. The program will help people learn about how to practice effective sun protection after the transplant.
