Abstract
Description
"Just when you think that you will personally never be involved with organ or tissue donors, there you are, on duty in the emergency department of your community hospital one evening when a patient's family says, "If you can't do anything more for him, could he be an organ donor?" What do you say to the family? Do you know the criteria for identifying organ and tissue donors? Do you know the difference between organ and tissue donors? Do you know who to call to find out the answers?"--Excerpt from article
