WHAT IS BIRTH TISSUE DONATION?

Did you know your baby’s birth tissue could be used to benet someone else? Often, the birth tissue is discarded along with medical waste. But with your donation, this same birth tissue can help dozens of others.

Placenta donation, or birth tissue recovery, is a program of Sierra Donor Services that utilizes the birth tissue’s remarkable ability to heal. After the baby’s birth, the birth tissue’s cellular components and amniotic membrane can be repurposed to create products for wound healing, scar tissue repair, and wound tissue regeneration.

Birth tissue can be used for face and eye injuries, burns, oral surgeries, spine surgeries, diabetic foot ulcers, leg ulcers, bed sores, and a variety of other soft tissue healing.

Below are some of the key accountabilities this position will hold:

Corresponds with hospitals and birthing centers to coordinate onsite birth tissue recovery initiatives. Travels by car to assigned facilities to provide appropriate recovery and education support.

Coordinates birth tissue donation process by obtaining informed consent, completing the Donor Risk Assessment Interview, and determines suitability.
Acquires donated birth tissue using proper aseptic techniques and personal protective equipment.
Enters timely and accurate medical records in electronic database.
Collaborates and maintains effective communication with nurses, obstetricians, and other medical personnel.
Performs other duties as assigned
