Position Description:
The Clinical Response Coordinator (CRC) is an integral role within the organ donation process at Legacy of Hope (LoH). The CRC will be responsible for performing on-site visits to donor hospitals within their coverage area. They, in conjunction with the administrator on call, will determine initial suitability of potential organ and tissue donors. This will be done by communicating and interacting with hospital and physician staff in collaborative and professional ways. The CRC will evaluate specific case dynamics and determine which information is clinically significant and should be communicated to the hospital teams and Legacy of Hope staff who are off-site. They will also assess available clinical data found in medical record or bedside assessment to determine initial medical suitability for donation. The CRC will encourage implementation of catastrophic brain injury guidelines as appropriate based upon their clinical judgement. In situations when needed, the CRC will also be expected to identify and support the needs of the potential donor family and offer them information about donation opportunities (organ and tissue). After authorization is obtained, the CRC will coordinate the transport of blood for serological testing and tissue typing to the appropriate laboratories. They will also initiate individualized case donor management, after brain death is declared, to ensure donor stability while coordinating arrival of procurement transplant coordinator (PTC) or critical care transport (CCT) to donor’s location. Donor management could include ordering and interpreting labs, ensuring appropriate fluid maintenance, and implementing vasoactive and hemodynamic supportive medications as required by the donor’s status. They will obtain required information from the hospital medical record to be transferred with patients from the donor hospital location to the donor recovery center as appropriate.
