I going to repeat it again. This is not about if organ donation is right or wrong, this is about certain practices. I'm not the only one that's experienced this OP. So, no, it's not a lie. Just...
This is not about if organ donation is right or wrong, it's about the certain practices. I've seen it. I didn't see all organ reps do it. But, the times I did see, I felt the family was being rushed....
Although the beginning of your post, superficially playing both sides, I actually appreciated it, but the truth of purpose seems to be towards the end. The closing was rather demeaning and rude....
Do the ends justify the means? Persistently persuade one family to save a lot more. At what point should the grieving family's wishes be respected? I never said my argument wasn't intelligent. People...
I'm asking you, someone who doesn't know "my truth" to tell me the process. Immature, no, I'm asking you to prove your statement. It's not "my truth" if it's a objective surgical procedure, repeated...
I'll be honest, I wanted to go into forensic nursing, when I'm was over doing bedside nursing. But, then, I thought of the ripeness of certain bodies I'd be
Please give me examples of my defensive replies. You took one quote, that isn't my "driving force". Believe me, if someone's going to be rude to me, I will be rude back. My truth? How is it my truth?...
Quote from dirtyhippiegirl Well, you have to harvest fast because the body starts to decompose fairly quickly -- that's why there is pressure to talk to undecided families very quickly after the brain...
My apologies, when you stated "state's organ team." I thought you meant state's organ team. You stated I was misinformed, is that questioning my knowledge? If you read my previous post, I said...
@CelticGoddess, BSN, RN You're assuming I never encountered organ donation close to home. I'm sorry for your disposition, but, I can see how it would be difficult for you understand how the other...
Well, I've seen it. I work in California. Let me give you one example, the organization was called and I introduced them. Family was given the information and declined. But, according to the rep,...
I'm talking about when the family says no, these meetings are held. I'm only speaking of those family's that have already said no and the organization cannot take no for an answer. I'm not...
Unfortunately, the families, are too shock about the death to even protest. There's no limit. How many times should it be? First, the examples you provided earlier are life long changes, i.e. smoking...
@CelticGoddess You're assuming I never encountered organ donation close to home. I'm sorry for your disposition, but, I can see how it would be difficult for you understand how the other family is...
Please do not compare donating organs to saying no to smoking, eating healthy, and flu shots. How are they similar? Are the patient's family vulnerable and grieving while they are asked to not smoke,...
I think, just the persuasiveness and persistence of some of the representatives from these organizations are why I'm questioning the ethics behind it all. I've had families say no outright upon...
@ Rose_Queen, MSN, RN I know it's my opinion, that's why I stated "I think" many times throughout my post. But, clearly, you felt the need to one, concentrate on my mention of the CEO's salary and...
Thank you, I didn't mean to offend anybody by my post. And, sadly, I'm receiving unintelligible replies questioning my intelligence. You and the first poster are the two that don't passively insult....
@ dirtyhippiegirl, BSN, RN Bringing in a third party after the family already made their wishes known regarding organ donation and during the grieving process seems predatory and unethical. That's...
The same drivers license donor practice is done in California, as well. But, I was referring to the people that did not have the sticker. Thank you for posting a very intelligent thought provoking...
@ traumaRUs, MSN, APRN, CNS In California, the same license practice of being an organ donor is done. I was wondering about the people that didn't respond yes or no on their license. I understand...
I have actually, 1-2 million, quick google is very taxing. But, let's not digress. Bringing in a third party after the family already made their wishes known regarding organ donation and during the...
