We ❤️ our caregivers who think with their hearts every day. Peggy recently shared what she loves most about the work she and her team do daily, "Transplant is such an amazing undertaking. Very skilled caregivers come together to ensure that the transplant is coordinated for the best patient outcome, all the while caring for the donor family. I have the greatest respect for my team, my physicians and the donor coordinators that work tirelessly to coordinate with multiple teams, much of the time in the middle of the night. Every time we do a heart transplant, I'm struck by how such a complex, high risk operation is orchestrated. I love what I do!"

Waiting for a transplant is not like taking a number and waiting your turn. The waitlist is better described as a giant pool of patients. When a deceased organ donor is identified, UNOS’ computer system generates a ranked list of transplant candidates who are suitable to receive each organ. UNOS matches individuals waiting for a lifesaving transplant with compatible donor organs. Learn more: www.unos.org

We ❤️ our caregivers who think with their hearts every day.

Dr. Kevin Koomalsingh shares his thoughts on the connection of the lifesaving work of heart transplants and organ donors. "Organ donation is the ultimate gift. Without the organ donor, there is no story, no hope, and no transplant. We are forever grateful for those who choose to donate. Please consider signing up to be an organ donor." www.donatelifenw.org/register-now

Heart transplant patient, Monica Olden, shares on the personal impact of being an organ donor recipient and how the choice of others "changes people's lives, not just the recipient but [their] children, extended family, friends... you're saving everybody... it's what everybody should do."

"Being an organ donor is one of the most incredible gifts you can give to your communities, to your neighbors, and to your friends," says Dr. Dan Westerdahl, advanced heart failure cardiologist, Providence Heart Institute. He credits the "courageous gift of a donor and the donor's family" in being able to tell Monica's story.

Donate Life Month raises awareness to the importance of organ donation each April. We invite you to follow Dr. Westerdahl's suggestion and check your current ID to confirm if you are an organ donor. You can take steps to update your ID to reflect your choice to be an organ donor through your local department of motor vehicles, or register to be a donor at https://www.donatelifenw.org/.
