The Organ and Tissue Donor Registry is a confidential, 24-hour-a-day, computerized database that documents your wishes regarding organ donation. Placing your name on the registry is one of the best ways for making your wish to be an organ donor known. Your organ donor registry information will be available to the hospital and your family at the time of your death, and will assist your family in making a decision when asked about organ donation. Additional information can be found at the Department of Community Health's 'Gift of Life' website.
