"The DonateLifeTM Network is the cornerstone of the Australian Government's four year $151.1 million national reform agenda, which involves more than 300 health professionals focused on organ and tissue donation nationally. DonateLife ACT has nine dedicated staff working with ACT health professionals. The aim is to ensure that donation is a part of end-of-life patient care and that all potential donors are identified and their families asked about donation in a respectful and compassionate way and supported in making their decision.
Discover, Decide, Discuss is DonateLife's key theme. To discover more about organ and tissue donation, what to do when you decide to become a potential donor, and suggestions on how to discuss your wishes with your family visit http://www.donatelife.gov.au/
