The purpose of the literature review was to summarise evidence
related to nursing support for a dying patient's family with the option of
organ donation. The authors concluded that clear information, sensitively and professionally delivered, helped families understand their loved ones' condition. This in turn helped them to accept death and to consider the option of organ donation.
