The only way of dealing with organ failure is through transplant. However, the act has become rampant more than the expected; some individuals from all over the world perform organ transplant for their gain without necessarily considering the ethics. Also, there are two forms of organ transplant. First, there are the organs from recently deceased people; cadaveric organs. In most cases, cadaveric organ donors indicate before they die that they want their organ transplanted when they die. In other cases, one’s family becomes the consent of organ removal.
The second organ donors are the living people. On one hand, family members or friends may decide to donate organs for their loved ones. On the other hand, strangers may decide to donate their organs to save people’s lives. Research shows that deceased organ donors exceed the living organ donors in most health centers. Therefore, Multi-Organ Transplant Program has conducted a multi-disciplinary building-consensus process to discuss ethical guidelines for organ transplant procedures (Schildmann, J. (2010). The discussion aims at creating awareness to people, disclosing some of the risks and benefits of both the recipient and the donor.
However, imperfection in the transplant organ distribution followed by donor organs scarcity. Deontology; there must be duties, respects and rights of each individual whether a health caregiver or the receiver. Also, many people have lost their lives following organ transplant procedures.

Thus, it is important to consider the probability of success in both the donors and the recipient. Ethics theories try to agitate for the increase of organ transplant while considering fairness and care for both the donors and the individuals receiving the organs; there must be a mutual benefit between the two parties (Schildmann, J. (2010). In social relations, the well-being of both care receivers and caregivers are considered. Also, in relation to the outcomes or the consequences of the act of transplanting there must be a response that shows moral virtues; Consequentialist ethics.
