Anatomical Gift Program
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
听
Thank you for your interest in the 91原创 Anatomical Gift Program.
Anatomical gift donations are used exclusively for anatomical education by students.听 We never sell, transfer, or otherwise send anatomical gift donations to be used by other facilities or agencies.听 All donations to our program remain at the 91原创 until the students鈥 anatomical study is complete, at which time, the remains are returned to the funeral home indicated on the听Anatomical Gift Donor Form.
If you would like to participate in this very important donor program, please complete and return the Anatomical Gift Donor Form and inform your family or estate of your decision so that they are aware of your wishes.听The 91原创 will be responsible for the costs associated with this program.听These costs include transportation, embalming and cremation.
The 91原创 Anatomical Gift Program welcomes the opportunity to work with all local funeral homes and has worked most closely with Chandler Funeral Homes. Please feel free to contact us for a list of all funeral homes whom we have worked with in the past.
Unfortunately, there are occasional situations beyond our control when anatomical gifts cannot be accepted. Such situations include, but are not limited to,听existence of infectious or communicable disease (e.g., HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis, Prion Disease, Tuberculosis etc.), a body weight in excess of 225 pounds, autopsy, surgery within the past 30 days, and limited storage capacity at the University. We regret that this happens, and when it does, we will inform families as quickly as possible and assist in making other arrangements.
We are sincerely grateful for your interest in making an anatomical gift donation.听If you have any questions or need additional information, please don鈥檛 hesitate to contact us.听
