Directions:

You have been assigned to a Medical Decisions Board for a local hospital. Today, your decision involves a very common dilemma: four patients in complete renal failure, all in need of a kidney transplant and there is only one kidney. Your assignment is to determine who gets the available kidney? .

All of the following patients are compatible recipients for the kidney to be transplanted. The kidney donor was a 15 year old female who was killed in a car accident. The parents have requested that the kidney be transplanted in a teenager.

Includes:

1. Directions
2. Candidates & Information about them
3.List of things to think about during their decision etc.
4. Questions for their findings to lead the discussion

*I do this in groups of 3-4 & we have a group discussion once all students have had time to answer the questions and make their decision.
