Saint Vincent Hospital Recognizes National Donate Life Month
Jul 10, 2018
Part of the hospital’s commitment to this important campaign includes encouraging staff members to register as an organ and tissue donor. To learn more about donation and to sign up as a designated donor, visit www.registerme.org.

Interesting facts on organ donation:
- Currently, 54 percent of the U.S. adult population are registered organ and tissue donors.
- More than 116,000 people are waiting for a transplant and a second chance at life.
- On average, 20 people die each day because the organ they need is not donated in time. That is almost one person dying every hour. Registering your decision to become a donor is the most effective way to save lives through donation and is a sign of support to those who continue to wait.
