The
ORS department also provides waiting and transplanted patients with
current statistics, educational
and promotional materials to assist them in their own crusades to promote
organ and tissue donor awareness. Additionally, the ORS staff continually
promotes organ and tissue donor awareness through many educational
in-services and events across the state. ORS is also part of the Acute
Bereavement Services team at The Nebraska Medical Center, which ensures
that the hospitals’ obligation, and the patients’ wishes
regarding organ and tissue donation are met through an informed consent
process. Each family is given the option to participate in the organ
and tissue donor program at the time of death. |
