Staff gathered in the RNSH foyer to celebrate the day
jersey day: fostering conversations about organ donation Northern Sydney Local Health District participated in Jersey Day, a national event that promotes organ donation awareness. Inspired by Nathan Gremmo, a 13-year-old organ donor who saved six lives, staff wore their favourite jerseys to spark conversations about the importance of registering as organ and tissue donors. Clinical nurse consultant Alyce Robinson said there were 1800 patients on the Australian transplant waitlist and 14,000 on dialysis. “In Australia, it is crucial for everyone to consider registering their intention to donate organs and tissues on the Australian Organ Donor Register (AODR),” she said. Australians are encouraged to register their decision on the Australian Organ Donor Register (AODR) here: https://www.donatelife.gov.au/register-donor-today.
