Organ donation and transplantation - What you need to know!!!

Organ donation!! On the next episode of 'They Made it Happen - with Linda' podcast, the host discusses the importance of Organ donation. Organ donation has many positive effects on the donor and recipients who experience the greatest benefit. Many organs and tissues can be donated and transplanted. Even farther-reaching effects outside of the donors and recipients is the impact on families and friends who love and support those in need of a transplant. Organ donation and transplantation allows a deceased or living donor to give life to another. Surgeons remove a healthy organ from a donor who doesn’t need it and transfer it to someone else who does. Organs that they can transplant include the liver, kidney, heart, lungs and more. The waiting list is not simply a list of people who are eligible for transplant. It’s a dynamic, complex algorithm based on a carefully developed policy that ensures scarce organs are allocated to recipients as fairly and accurately as possible within highly constricted time frames. Are you an organ donor? Are you registered? Is it annotated onto your drivers license? What restrictions' or reservations do you have?
