End of Life Options

When You Choose Body Donation

• All donor programs must be notified of your death so they can arrange to quickly transport you to their facility.

Once Death Occurs

• They must be able to cool the body down as soon as possible.

• The body can go to a funeral home first if needed.

• Some programs will limit their service area simply to make sure that all donors will arrive within acceptable time limits.

• Most donor programs will cover all costs associated with the

transportation from the place of death, most or all funeral home fees, death certificate processing fees, the cremation costs and return of cremated remains in a dignified urn/container.
