The Nebraska Medical Center offers patients the added benefit of an in-house Organ Recovery Services (ORS) department. Specially trained coordinators meticulously track each potential recipient placed on the national organ recipient waiting list. This internal department enables The Nebraska Medical Center to dynamically monitor and maintain a current and accurate waiting list to provide each waiting patient with optimal access to available donor organs.

  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.
