2. Aims • To re –cap on ODTF recommendations that fall within NHSBT's remit • To share & present information contained in NHSBT's Strategic Plan 2008/11 • To outline the broad principles of the Strategic Plan • To confirm the next steps that NHSBT will be taking to contact staff's current employers to work with them on implementing the ODTF recommendations • To reassure you that we want to answer all of your many questions and work with you on implementation plans once formal channels of communication commence with your employer

3. ODTF Recommendations (1)‏ • A UK wide organ donation organisation (ODO) should be established • The establishment of the ODO should be the responsibility of NHSBT • All parts of the NHS must embrace organ donation as a usual, not unusual event. Local policies, constructed around national guidelines, should be put in place. Discussions about donation should be part of all end of life care when appropriate. Each Trust should have an identified clinical donation champion and a Trust donation committee to help achieve this

4. ODTF Recommendations (2)‏ • Donation activity in all Trusts should be monitored. Rates of potential donor identification, referral, approach to the family and consent to donation should be reported. The Trust donation committee should report to the Trust Board through the clinical governance process and the medical director, and thereports should be part of the assessment of Trusts through the relevant healthcare regulator. Benchmark data from other Trusts should be made available for comparison

5. ODTF Recommendations (3)‏ • The current network of DTCs should be expanded and strengthened through central employment by a UK wide ODO. Additional co-ordinators embedded within critical care areas, should be employed to ensure a comprehensive, highly skilled, specialised and robust service. There should be a close and defined collaboration between DTCs, clinical staff and Trust donation champions. Electronic on line donor registration and offering systems should be developed.

6. ODTF Recommendations (4)‏ • Financial disincentives to trusts facilitating donation should be removed through the development and introduction of appropriate reimbursement • A UK wide network of dedicated organ retrieval teams should be established to ensure timely, high-quality organ removal from all HB and NHB donors. The ODO should be responsible for commissioning the retrieval teams and for audit and performance management

7. NHSBT’s Strategic Plan 2008/11 • Plan agreed by the Board on 3 April 2008 • Contains overall ‘high level’ strategic objectives surrounding the implementation of ODTF recommendations that fall within NHSBT's remit • Successful delivery of ODFT outcomes & benefits require effective integration of the entire work programme through an overarching NHS framework led by the DH supported by the three devolved health administrations . • Overarching aim is to achieve a 50% increase in organ donation within a 5 year time frame
