Great to catch up with Olayinka O Aremu (Nurse Coach Ola) today and the Irish Kidney Association launch of #OrganDonorWeek25. Looking forward to supporting the African Health Summit in July. youtube.com/watch?v=TqSslZ…

June 17th has been announced as the date that Part 2 (Transplantation) of the Human Tissue Act(2024) will commence. Whilst this is new legislation, it is important to understand that the role of family consent remains central. ika.ie/donorweek #ShareYourWishes #DonorWeek25

A positive step forward... Hopefully it will help trigger a national conversation about organ donation for transplantation. #ShareYourWishes #LeaveNoDoubt #DonorWeek25

In sharing their time and their life experiences, the volunteers in the Irish Kidney Association are the foundation upon which the community sits, and services offered are built. #NationalVolunteerWeek

"4.4% of ICU deaths resulted in organ donation." Have you shared your organ donation wishes with your family? ika.ie/donorcard

"A new modelling analysis across eight countries predicts that with improved detection and treatment of chronic kidney disease (CKD), more people can stay off dialysis and therefore patients and caregivers remain engaged in their communities and workplaces."

It was good to be on Newstalk Breakfast this morning and bring clarity to the changes in practice in relation to consent for organ donation that the commencement of Part 2 of the Human Tissue Act (2024) on Tuesday will bring. #ShareYourWishes #LeaveNoDoubt newstalk.com/podcasts/highl…

An opt-out register for those who do not want to be considered for organ donation and if you do not opt out, your family will be asked if they have any objection to organ donation going ahead. Organ donation will only happen if the family has no objection rte.ie/radio/podcasts…

Good to see the growing emphasis on the need for integrated care. This is particularly relevant in the area of kidney disease as there are many allied co-morbidities. The body does not work in silos, meaning that healthcare should not be delivered in silos.
