Canadian Blood Services releases Call to Action, a blueprint for the national strategy on organ and tissue donation and transplantation

Canadian Blood Services released Call to Action, a blueprint for the national strategy on organ and tissue donation and transplantation developed on behalf of the organ and tissue donation and transplantation (OTDT) community in Canada.

"This call to action is tremendous for the future of organ donation in Canada," said Dr. Brendan McCarthy, medical director for Transplant Manitoba Gift of Life program. "This is a strategy that leverages existing successes, strengths, and investments in the system, and paves the way for the collaboration, coordination, and clear accountability needed for all the provinces to reach their full potential in terms of organ donors," said McCarthy.
