Healthcare Professionals
Healthcare Professionals and Hospitals play a key role in helping TGLN be an effective leader in managing Ontario’s organ and tissue donation and transplantation. There are 69 hospital corporations across the province that secure organ/tissue donation as part of end-of-life care; provide organ and tissue donation best practices; and maximize organ and tissue donations for transplantation.Donor Families
Working with TGLN, Donor Families receive many different kinds of support. It begins from the time that consent is granted for up to 12 months. This can include access to information materials, donor recognition events and other support measures.In the Community
Individuals in the Community are critical to the promotion and public awareness efforts regarding the need to register as an organ and tissue donor. TGLN works with community volunteers and various organizations to provide the necessary information and support.Transplantation
Preparations for a transplant often begin long before the surgery to replace the damaged or diseased organ. A coordinated effort by transplant surgeons, coordinators, social workers, psychologists, the patient and donor family, among many others, is vital to ensure a successful surgery.How you can help
