Initially, it should be
noted that transplantation is the last method treatment. Expert and legal team
is needed for such a complex procedure because it is a legal legal process. The
question is, is the role of a nurse crucial in transplantation? The attitude of
health workers about organ donation can either facilitate or hinder the process
of organ donation.

Many studies have shown
that their role is significant. They can act as coordinators between the
treatment team, but also between donors and their families, but also the
recipient of the organ.

People have different attitudes reference to
organ donation. The degree of readiness to be registered as organ donors have
been associated with a wide range of humanitarian and the charity of the
feelings includes a plurality of factors. These factors are a complete
willingness to donate the organ, but also the dilemma of various abuses,
empathy and fear what will happen to these after their death. The nurse must
also be included in the transplantation law, because the training of nurses for
intensive care is extremely important in the organ donation process. In many
countries, nurses are not members of the team for transplantation because it is
considered that they lack the required level of knowledge. Education about the transplantation
of organs should be included in the mandatory training and all the nurses have
to finish it, in Serbia. Developing a more positive attitude of nurses towards
organ transplantation, improving knowledge and changing beliefs should increase
the total number of organ donations.
