For healthcare professionals & teachers

Healthcare Professionals

Compassionate end-of-life care and the opportunity for organ and tissue donation is every family’s right and the responsibility of all members of the donation and healthcare team. Information about organ donation, routine notification and the donation process, can be found here.

If you are a healthcare professional with a deceased donor referral, or if you are outside Manitoba and want to know if a Manitoba patient has registered an intent to donate, contact a Donor Coordinator using HSC Winnipeg's 24-hour paging system at (204) 787-2071.

Teachers
