Now available on YouTube!

With the aging of both the transplant candidate population and the donor pool, clinicians increasingly face complex decisions regarding organ acceptance, candidate selection, and risk–benefit tradeoffs. Practices vary widely across centers, and clinicians would benefit from a structured framework to navigate these challenges. This webinar will provide a practical, evidence-based, and ethically grounded approach to decision-making in older donors and recipients, with emphasis on real-world clinical application.

👠✨ Walking the talk—one step at a time. ✨👠

I’m delighted to be enjoying my beautiful new @Fluevog shoes while supporting a cause that is deeply meaningful to me: the @AST_info ’s #LivingDonorCircleOfExcellence .

As a transplant professional, I’ve had the privilege of witnessing the extraordinary impact of #LivingOrganDonation. Living donors give more than an organ—they give hope, health, time, and a future. Their generosity changes lives forever.

⭕️ That’s why I am especially grateful for this partnership with the legendary @Fluevog, whose creativity and commitment to making a difference are helping shine a spotlight on living donation.

💫 Every purchase from this initiative supports the #LivingDonor 'Circle of Excellence' and its mission to ⭐ recognize employers who provide leave for employees recovering from #LivingDonation surgery 🏥💙💚
@ATCMeeting (ATC) 2026

⭐ Removing financial barriers is vital to supporting #OrganDonation & #transplantation🦋

🏅I am proud that SSM Health is part of the #LivingDonor #CircleOfExcellence. It’s a privilege to stand alongside so many dedicated donors, recipients, advocates, healthcare professionals, and supporters working to expand access to life-saving transplantation.

💙💚 Did you know?
• Living donor #transplantation often provides better outcomes and longer-lasting results.
• Living donors can donate a #kidney or a portion of their #liver.
• Thousands of people are currently waiting for a life-saving transplant.

Together, we can raise awareness, celebrate generosity, and inspire more people to learn about the life-saving power of living donation.
