Donor Designation & The Law
When a person has indicated his or her decision to become a donor—most often done by indicating their wishes on their driver’s license—they have made a legally binding commitment to make an anatomical gift. During such an emotional time, most families are relieved to know that the decision to donate has already been made by their loved one. However, there are times when a family may question that decision. In those instances, we’ll work closely with families to help them understand and follow the state laws that govern a person’s decision to donate.
