Service Description
Visit website for information on the organ and tissue donor registry, including:
- Why be a Donor?
- Eligibility
- How to Register
- and more.
Eligibility
Any person 16 years or older with a valid Saskatchewan Health Services Card number can register their intent to be a donor.
Your eligibility to be a donor will be determined at the time of death by a health care team. Some people incorrectly assume their medical condition, poor physical fitness or advanced age would automatically disqualify them as a donor.
Medical teams will confirm whether organs/tissues are considered medically viable for transplant. If so, transplant coordinators will work to find matching recipients with the most pressing need.
Application Process
Register online.
Alternately, download the paper registration form (via the website. Submit the completed form via mail (eHealth Saskatchewan, 2130 11th Avenue, Regina, SK, S4P 0J5) or scan and email to donorregistrysupport@ehealthsask.ca.
After you register, be sure to talk with your family (or whoever would be considered your next-of-kin), so they understand your decision. Families are more likely to agree to donation if they are aware of a family member's wishes.
