The donation begins with the generous decision of individuals or their families to donate tissue. Once authorization is obtained, highly trained professionals conduct a thorough medical and social history review to ensure the donor’s tissue is safe for transplantation. This review is followed by a meticulous screening process that includes laboratory testing to check for infectious diseases, ensuring the highest safety standards are met.

bioCARE leads the nation in the development of placenta donation programs, pioneering seamless and safe donor and hospital integration. We value and honor the work that we do. We are honored to be able to witness new lives being born and from that miracle and the generous donation by the mother we are stewards of the tissues on the path to helping others. The journey is emotional and personal to us, too.

Donated tissues undergo extensive processing and preservation. This process may involve cleaning, sterilizing, and treating the tissues to ensure they are safe and effective for transplantation. These tissues are then stored under specific conditions that maintain their integrity until they are needed.

Donated tissues have a profound impact on medical treatments and patient outcomes. They are used in a variety of surgical procedures, including reconstructive surgeries, burn treatment, ligament and tendon repair, and heart valve replacement. Corneas from donors can restore sight to individuals with corneal blindness. Each donated tissue not only enhances the quality of life for recipients but also provides a lasting legacy of generosity and compassion from the donor.
