Introduction: The organ donation and transplantation (ODT) system in Canada is complex and can be challenging for individuals to navigate. We thus aimed to illuminate the experiences of individuals on transplant journeys using a patient‐oriented convergent parallel mixed‐methods approach. Methods: We captured data on adult patients, living donors, and caregivers on transplant journeys across Canada through an online survey (n = 935) and focus groups (n = 21). The survey was comprised of 48 questions about the individuals' experiences with the living donation and transplantation system, which were analyzed descriptively. Qualitative data were analyzed using an inductive conventional content analysis approach. Results: Most participants were female (70.1%), English speaking (92.6%) and White (87.8%). Participants' experiences were represented across six key themes: holistic person‐centred care, accountable care, collective impact, navigating uncertainty, connection and advocacy. Quantitative and qualitative data were integrated to identify five opportunities to improve the organ donation and transplantation system in Canada: enhancing mental health support, establishing formal peer support programmes, improving continuity of care, improving knowledge acquisition, and expanding resources and support. Conclusion: It is imperative that the ODT system commits to asking, listening, and learning from individuals on transplant journeys and to provide them opportunities to help improve it.
