Your first year in organ donation can be meaningful, exciting, exhausting, and overwhelming—sometimes all during the same case.
This podcast-style recording is an honest conversation about what it feels like to begin working as an Organ Procurement Coordinator. It covers the pressure, responsibility, emotional weight, steep learning curve, and moments of self-doubt that often accompany the transition into this complex role.
It is not a formal lecture or another orientation module. It's an AI hosted conversation from the notes of Brooke Wallace, an experienced Organ Procurement Coordinator and ICU nurse. She wants you to understand what you are walking into—and wants you to know that you are not expected to master everything immediately.
