ForwardCANCELLED - Conversations in Ethics: Organ Donation Allocation: Who, What, Where?
NOTICE: We regret that we must postpone March 20th the Conversations in Ethics lecture.
Our institution intends to reschedule this lecture for a time when we can safely gather comfortably and without concern. We will notify you when a new date is confirmed.
There are more than 120,000 people in the U.S. waiting for a lifesaving transplant. Organ donation allocation and transplantation are multifaceted, multifactorial, intricate processes. Public trust must be maintained through delicate balancing of seemingly incongruent values: justice and utility.
Join us as we discuss the process of organ donation, especially what happens after authorization is granted by the family and i.e. donor testing, organ allocation, organ preservation, and donor family support.
Target Audience
Physicians, Psychologists, Physician Assistants, Nurse Practitioners, Nurses, Social Workers, Respiratory Therapists, Clinical Chaplains, Medical Students, Radiology Technologists, Registered Dietitians and other interested healthcare professionals.
Pre-registration is required. Please log in to register.
