  • Ensure effective communication of mandatory requirements for referral and logistic implementation under the Human Organ and Tissue Donation Act (HOTDA).
  • Implement donation practices and policies across NSH, working in partnership with the Medical Director, Provincial Medical Education Lead, Manager, and Clinical Practice Lead.
  • Support best practices and establish an effective donation program integrated into quality end-of-life care.
Qualifications
  • Physician or surgeon licensed to practice medicine in Nova Scotia with current NS Health privileges.
  • Attending physician in Critical Care in the applicable zone.
  • Previous experience working in an Organ Donation/Procurement Organization is an asset.
