A transplant coordinator, Salonen founded the program alongside Byers \u201cBud\u201d Shaw, MD, in 1985 and then championed its success. This past January \u2013 38 years after joining the med center \u2013 Salonen retired, leaving behind a legacy that is unmatched.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Early days&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Salonen knew early in her career she wanted to help children and went on to work in the pediatric intensive care units at CS Mott Children\u2019s Hospital at the University of Michigan and Children\u2019s Hospital University of Illinois in Chicago.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMy favorite patients were the teenagers,\u201d Salonen said. \u201cThey\u2019re very resilient because they don\u2019t want to be sick. Kids just want to be normal \u2013 they want to play and interact. That\u2019s why I ended up in pediatrics.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was luck that brought her to the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center in 1982, she said, where she served as a clinical nurse specialist for all surgical patients in the pediatric hospital. The facility had established the nation\u2019s first pediatric liver transplant program. Because the procedure was new and somewhat controversial then, there was not an organized system in place to guide nurses on how to provide a standard of care.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHere were these very sick kids who had a huge operation, and none of the nurses knew what to do,\u201d she said. \u201cThey brought them back and stuck them in a bed, and that was that \u2013 it was chaotic. I advocated that they needed somebody to teach nurses how to take care of these patients and support their families.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her passion for patient care led her to establish the first liver transplant coordinator role for the hospital.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Joining UNMC&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.unmc.edu\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Salonen124-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-106520\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.unmc.edu\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Salonen124-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.unmc.edu\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Salonen124-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.unmc.edu\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Salonen124-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.unmc.edu\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Salonen124-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.unmc.edu\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Salonen124.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Laurie Salonen and Byers \u201cBud\u201d Shaw, MD<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Salonen went on to develop this same role at UNMC (prior to the hospital merger that created Nebraska Medicine) when she and Dr. Shaw were recruited to establish the liver failure and transplant program in 1985.

Many have modeled their transplant coordinator roles after the one she built.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhat she does for patients is above and beyond,\u201d transplant coordinator April Romans said at the time of Salonen\u2019s retirement. \u201cShe makes relationships with them and knows their history.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2014, UNMC\u2019s Salonen moved over to Nebraska Medicine because more than 80% of her job activities involved clinical care.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This spring, an anonymous donor established the Nebraska Medicine Laurel Williams Salonen Endowed Nursing Fund to support professional development for solid organ transplant coordinators and nursing staff.
