Abstract

Life starts from birth and end with the death of the individual. In Between the birth and   death there are different stages of life, where a Person faces different diseases and its problems.  Organ donation is the gracious act. It firmly believes that the organ is use of others and death is not the end, and it is another beginning. Organ is a structural part of a system of the body that is composed of tissues and cells that enable it to perform a particular function. In case, any of the organs of the human Body fails to carry out its normal function, It need surgical replacement  of the organ by organ transplantation. For some organs, the donation can be given while the healthy person is alive, in other cases; the donation is made after death. Organ donation is done by both living and deceased donors.  The present Pre experimental one group pretest and posttest research design was conducted among nursing students to evaluate the effectiveness of Organ Donation. The researcher  selected 60 samples based on non probity sampling technique. The results shown that the level  of knowledge was improved after implementation of planned teaching, which indicates the planned teaching was effective. The researcher concluded that, the teaching aids will be helpful in improving knowledge among students as well as public. The researcher recommended that,  the community education programme and personal behavior change education is required for bring awareness regarding organ donation.
