Organ Donation Twitter Chat Report
11th Apr 2019
On the 2nd April 2019 7-8pm the BACCN hosted a Twitter Chat with the Organ Donation theme specifically looking at the change in legislation in organ donation from “Opt-In” to “Opt-Out”. The link to the brief was uploaded onto the BACCN website before the Twitter Chat: https://www.baccn.org/static/uploads/resources/BACCNorgantwitterchat_02.04.19_nscY3q3.docx
The Twitter Chat was moderated by the BACCN National Membership Secretary, Patricia McCready and the Project Lead for Deemed Consent Legislation Implementation for the Organ Donation & Nursing NHS Blood and Transplant, Phil Walton.
It was a lively hour with good engagement and participation, a summary of the ‘tweets’ which has been collated by Karin Gerber can be found on the following link: http://wke.lt/w/s/VxQNt.
On behalf of the BACCN National Board I would like to thank Phil Walton and the Organ Donation & Nursing team at NHS Blood and Transplant for which there will be having some representation at our annual conference in Edinburgh.
