Indiana Donor Network Promotes Wiseman to Manager of Hospital Services
November 16, 2020
INDIANAPOLIS – Indiana Donor Network announces Bradley Wiseman, RN, has been promoted to manager of hospital services. In this role, Wiseman will oversee the 22-person team that ensures the organization’s 181 clinical partners have the tools and support they need to facilitate the lifesaving and healing gifts of organ and tissue donation and transplantation.
Wiseman brings to the role both clinical and business management experience. He first joined Indiana Donor Network in 2019 as an organ recovery coordinator with the organ services team. Previously, he spent three and a half years as a nurse in Indianapolis – first at Eskenazi Hospital and then at Indiana University Health Methodist Hospital. Prior to his nursing career, Wiseman was a small business owner.
Wiseman says he’s looking forward to leading Indiana Donor Network’s hospital services team through a time of continued growth and innovation. In 2020, the department tripled in size and made significant changes – such as creating on-site positions at the state’s top trauma centers – in an effort to improve the donation process for its many clinical partners.
“Since growing and reorganizing the hospital services team, we have seen an increase in donation as well as an improvement in our relationships with donor hospitals across the state,” said Wiseman. “It’s incredibly fulfilling to know these partnerships are part of the reason we are saving and healing more lives than ever before.”
In October, with more than two months remaining in 2020, Indiana Donor Network announced it set records for both the number of organ donors and the number of lifesaving organs transplanted in a single calendar year. The organization is currently on pace to facilitate 31% more lifesaving organ transplants in 2020 compared to 2019.
