Increased Authorization Rates
“TransLife has enjoyed a successful relationship with the Gift of Life Institute since 2006. In that time, we have had the opportunity to provide training to our staff that incorporates the Dual Advocacy® philosophy – something that has benefited our organization greatly. Through on-site training, shadowing opportunities and regular communication with the Gift of Life Institute, TransLife has seen improvements in organizational communication as well as increased authorization rates.” Beth Fetter, Executive Director, TransLife
This Partnership Has Proven Successful
“The Australian Organ and Tissue Donation and Transplantation Authority (AOTDTA) has worked in partnership with the Gift of Life Institute since June 2011 on the development and delivery of a specialist training programme on conducting conversations with families about organ and tissue donation. This partnership has proven successful and provided a comprehensive professional training programme on effective communication with families about end of life care and the opportunity for donation. The Institute worked closely with the AOTDTA to understand the Australian environment and tailor the training to suit our needs. The expert knowledge and professional service provided by the Institute’s staff and trainers has supported the AOTDTA to achieve our goals and continues to support donor families and enhance the donation system in Australia.” Yael Cass, Chief Executive Office, Australian Organ and Tissue Donation and Transplantation Authority
Has Helped Our Team Grow and Improve Our Interactions With Families
“As the Donation Advocate for TransLife, I have had the opportunity to work closely with the Gift of Life for almost two years. The guidance provided from monthly Ask The Expert series and mentor phone calls, web interviews and annual workshops has helped our team grow and improve our interactions with families when offering them the opportunity to give the gift of life through organ donation. We have learned to speak with families from diverse backgrounds and how to work through various obstacles and concerns families have regarding organ donation.” Audra Willsey, Donation Advocate, TransLife
