The following Collaborative documents can assist with your efforts to improve donation in your hospital.
The Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) released Revisions to Standards LD.3.110 that require all hospitals to have an organ donation policy that addresses opportunities for asystolic recovery/Donation after Cardiac Death (DCD). To assist with creating a protocol for your hospital to meet the JCAHO requirements, the LifeBanc Hospital Relations department has created sample Hospital Policy and Procedures and Operational Decisions Worksheet regarding DCD. These tools, as well an in-service created for DCD are available to all hospitals. |
