Multi-Organ Transplant Program

Secondary School Transplant Education

Our Transplant Program has been a “partner in education” with secondary schools in Southwestern Ontario since 1998. Co-op students from local secondary schools spend an average of 160 hours in the Program. They learn about donor issues, recipient care, and research in a healthcare setting. Find out more about our co-op program.

Our transplant staff and education specialists developed a unit of study about donation and transplantation for Grade 11 students. This educational program – One Life…Many Gifts – was developed because our co-op students and student surveys identified the need for a formal educational experience that answered the many questions of these young adults.
