TRANSPLANT CO-ORDINATOR’S TRAINING PROGRAMME



TRANSPLANT CO-ORDINATOR’S TRAINING PROGRAMME
August 22 (Monday), 2011 to August 26 (Friday), 2011

ORGANISED BY ZONAL COORDINATION COMMITTEE OF KARNATAKA

IN PARTNERSHIP WITH










Transplant Co-ordinator's Training Program
The success of an organ donation and transplant programme depends on good co-ordination and trained transplant co-ordinators. The Government of India in its 2009 gazette has made transplant co-ordinator nomination mandatory before a hospital is registered as a trans-plant centre. This would mean that any one of the 300 transplant hospitals applying for re-newal of its license would need to have trained co-ordinators.

To address the training needs of this cadre of health care professionals, the Zonal Co-ordination Committee of Karnataka for Transplantations (ZCCK) in collaboration with the MOHAN Foundation and Gift Your Organ Foundation has introduced this ‘Transplant Co-ordinators’ Training Programme’. This programme has been designed to suit the require-ment of candidates from both medical and non medical backgrounds. This programme will provide the necessary insights into the complex field of organ transplantations.
