Editor's Notes
- Rohit and I are going to present some of the concepts from the Family Donation Conversation Workshops Core and Practical Communication techniques Bereavement and grief, the impact that this has on behaviour and decision making How we can empower families to make the right decision for them The importance of controlling the pace of the conversation and matching this to the families needs What I would like to talk about before dinner is the importance of fully informed decision making. When a family make a decision about donation before hearing and understanding information, there is a risk that their decision is not informed.
- Far from being mutually exclusive, there is an intersection of end of life care and organ and tissue donation. As part of end of life care, patients and families should be offered the opportunity to choose what is right for them with regards to organ and tissue donation. The decision regarding organ and tissue donation is most likely to be enduring when families have received excellent end of life care and support. End of life care, and information regarding organ and tissue donation, are our responsibility, and their right.
- Because lets face it, we don’t always make great decisions when we are stressed….
- Audience parrticipation: How can we mitigate stress? Examples of medical jargon which may get misinterpreted
