Presentation transcript:

 The Uniform Anatomical Gift Act allows a consenting individual to donate his or her organs and tissues upon death for the purpose of transplantation or medical research. You may express your wish to donate your organs and tissues for transplant by designating the words "Organ Donor" to appear on your NJ driver license or non-driver identification card. This designation is for individuals 18 or older.

 Organ donor registration is available online or in-person at your local MVC agency. When registering at an agency, you must present the required six (6) points of identification as well as verification of your address. Remember that you must confirm your decision each time you renew your license or non-driver ID.onlineMVC agency

 Could there be any conflict between saving your life and organ and tissue donation? No. Donation cannot occur until after a person has died. In the event of an accident or emergency, physicians and nurses will do everything possible to try to save your life. In fact, the medical team treating you is always completely separate from the transplant team.

 What organs and tissue can be donated? Life-saving organs for transplant include the heart, kidneys, lungs, pancreas, liver and intestines. Tissue such as bones, ligaments, and tendons are needed for surgical procedures to repair injured or diseased joints and bone. Donated corneas, heart valves and skin also improve the quality of life.
