Could design be used to instigate and facilitate family discussions on organ donation? Emma Higgins s2896985 Action Research 2 Assessment Item 2 Presentation https://emmasactionresearchblog.wordpress.com
Research Proposal In Australia, the consent for organ donation must come from the family of the deceased, even if the deceased had registered as an organ donor. This means that if family members don’t know each other’s wishes, they could make the wrong decision. Contextual Relevance • Approximately 40% of Australians haven’t discussed their organ donation decisions with their family (Organ and Tissue Authority 2016). • Less than 1% of deaths are in a situation where organ donation is possible (Organ and Tissue Authority 2016), • There is a complex matching process involved in fjnding the right organs for someone on the transplant waiting list. Organ and Tissue Authority. 2016. “Facts and Statistics.” Accessed 26 April. http://www.donatelife.gov.au/discover/facts-and-statistics.
