On September 13, 2024, the MOHAN Foundation team held a vital awareness session at Gujarat Kidney Multispecialty Hospital, targeting both nursing and ICU teams. This informative gathering aimed to enlighten hospital staff and the relatives of patients about the intricacies of organ donation, focusing on dispelling prevalent myths that often hinder individuals from considering this life-saving option.
The session began with an overview of the importance of organ donation, emphasizing the role that healthcare professionals play in facilitating the process. Participants engaged in discussions about the procedures involved in organ donation and transplantation, shedding light on the rigorous safeguards put in place by government authorities to prevent malpractices and ensure the integrity of this noble act.
In collaboration with the transplant team at Gujarat Kidney Multispecialty Hospital, the MOHAN Foundation provided valuable insights into the registration processes with SOTTO (State Organ and Tissue Transplant Organization) and NTORC (National Organ and Tissue Transplant Organization). This information is crucial for hospital staff, equipping them with the knowledge necessary to guide families in making informed decisions regarding organ donation.
Approximately 50 attendees participated in the session, contributing to a lively and informative atmosphere. The discussions not only clarified doubts but also fostered a deeper understanding of the ethical and compassionate dimensions of organ donation. By empowering healthcare professionals with this knowledge, the MOHAN Foundation aims to enhance the support system for families facing the challenging decisions related to organ donation, ultimately contributing to a more informed and supportive healthcare environment.
