Abstract
Description
"Public education for organ donation is a vital component of the transplantation process . Without community support, comprehension and co-operation there would be no organs to transplant. Transplant Coordinators throughout Canada and around the world, with their intimate knowledge of the organ donation process are ideal candidates to disseminate information to the public . And this, in fact, is often a significant part of the job for which they were hired. However, not everyone is a born speaker and, expertise in the area of transplant co-ordination does not guarantee a scintillating speaker."--Excerpt from introduction.
