Deceased donation
Deceased donation is the process of giving an organ or part of an organ, tissue and corneas at the time of a donor’s death for transplantation to another person. By registering to be a donor, you can give life to others. Unless under the age of 18, your family cannot override your decision.
Living donation
Living donation offers another choice for transplant candidates and saves two lives – the life of the recipient and the patient behind him or her who moves up on the transplant waiting list. A living donation of a kidney or partial liver can save lives in a shorter period of waiting time, often less than a year.
