Physician Leader in Organ Donation
2 weeks ago
Nova Scotia Health Authority has outlined a vision for people-centered healthcare that enables the system to think and act as one.
A critical step in enabling this vision of a provincial approach to health services was the consolidation of the nine existing district health authorities into Nova Scotia Health, with the IWK Health Centre remaining separate. A streamlined health system can provide many opportunities to put resources where most effective to meet population needs, build a system that focuses on people and patients, ensure a provincial approach to planning and integration of services, and reduce duplication.
Job OverviewThe Donation Physician role supports the development and implementation of a donation system across Nova Scotia by acting as a champion for deceased donation in the Critical Care and Emergency Care programs. This position reports to the Medical Director of Legacy of Life/Critical Care Organ Donation (LoL/CCOD).
