THROUGHOUT ITS HISTORY, THE ORGANIZATION HAS RELENTLESSLY PURSUED ITS CORE VALUES OF COMPASSION, QUALITY, TEAMWORK, INNOVATION, AND INTEGRITY TO CREATE A MEANINGFUL DONATION EXPERIENCE FOR DONOR FAMILIES.

A COMMUNITY-BASED BOARD OF DIRECTORS SETS POLICY FOR MTS AND IS COMPOSED OF HOSPITAL EXECUTIVES, PHYSICIANS, DONOR FAMILY MEMBERS, AND OTHER DISCIPLINES, INCLUDING ETHICS, RELIGION, AND LAW. THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER DIRECTS A LEADERSHIP TEAM COMPOSED OF THE CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER, DIRECTORS, AND MANAGERS. MTS IS STAFFED BY MORE THAN 100 EMPLOYEES INCLUDING NURSES, MEDICAL TECHNICIANS, TRIAGE COORDINATORS, BEREAVEMENT COUNSELORS, COMMUNITY RELATIONS, AND SUPPORT STAFF.THE ORGANIZATION'S CLINICAL WORK INCLUDES COORDINATING THE DONATION PROCESS AND WORKING AS THE LINK BETWEEN DONORS, THEIR FAMILIES, AND PATIENTS AWAITING LIFESAVING TRANSPLANTS. IN 2013, NEARLY 25,000 DEATH REFERRALS WERE ASSESSED BY MTS STAFF MEMBERS FOR POTENTIAL ORGAN AND TISSUE DONATION. THE ORGANIZATION SERVICES FOUR AREA TRANSPLANT CENTERS WHERE HEART, KIDNEY, LIVER, LUNG, AND PANCREAS TRANSPLANTS ARE PERFORMED; THERE ARE CURRENTLY MORE THAN 1,400 PEOPLE LOCALLY AWAITING LIFESAVING ORGAN TRANSPLANTS. UPON REFERRAL BY A HOSPITAL, THE CLINICAL TEAM MEMBERS PROVIDE TIMELY ON-SITE ASSESSMENT, EVALUATION, AND COORDINATION OF POTENTIAL DONORS AS WELL AS INTERACTING WITH THE FAMILY AND HOSPITAL STAFF REGARDING THE DONATION PROCESS. MTS STAFF MEMBERS ALSO GENERATE ORGAN TRANSPLANT CANDIDATE LISTINGS ON NATIONAL AND LOCAL COMPUTER SYSTEMS AND OVERSEE ALLOCATIONS OF ORGANS. IN 2013, GIFTS GIVEN BY 161 GENEROUS ORGAN DONORS ALLOWED MID-AMERICA TRANSPLANT SERVICES (AS THE ORGAN PROCUREMENT ORGANIZATION FOR EASTERN AND SOUTHERN MISSOURI, SOUTHERN ILLINOIS, AND NORTHEASTERN ARKANSAS) TO COORDINATE A TOTAL OF 509 LIFESAVING ORGAN TRANSPLANTS OVER THE COURSE OF THE YEAR. IN ADDITION TO ORGAN DONATION, TISSUE DONATION IS A CORE COMPONENT OF MTS'S MISSION TO SAVE LIVES. MTS COORDINATES THE RECOVERY OF TISSUE, WHICH CAN THEN BE MADE AVAILABLE FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE IN NEED OF CORNEA TRANSPLANTS TO RESTORE SIGHT, AS WELL AS SKIN AND BONE DONATIONS TO REPAIR INJURIES. IN 2013, MORE THAN 1300 GENEROUS TISSUE DONORS PROVIDED BONE DONATIONS THAT COULD BE USED TO REPAIR A DAMAGED LIMB AND POSSIBLY SAVE IT FROM AMPUTATION; EYE DONATION GIFTS THAT COULD BE USED TO RESTORE VISION; AND COUNTLESS OTHER TISSUE RECOVERIES THAT WILL GREATLY IMPROVE THE LIVES OF THOUSANDS OF TISSUE RECIPIENTS.IN 2013, MTS CONTINUED TO MAINTAIN THE SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENTS MADE TO ITS CUSTOM-BUILT FACILITY TO BETTER SERVE DONOR FAMILIES, RECIPIENTS, AND HOSPITAL PARTNERS. SIGNIGICANT IMPROVEMENTS INCLUDE A FAMILY WAITING ROOM THAT ALLOWS ADDITIONAL PRIVATE SPACE FOR DONOR FAMILIES DURING THEIR TIME WITH MTS, AN EXPANDED EYE BANK THAT ACCOMMODATES INCREASED CAPACITY, ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT, AND MORE TECHNOLOGICAL PROCESSING - ALL OF WHICH LED TO 726 VISION-SAVING TRANSPLANTS IN 2013; AND THE ONSITE LABORATORY SERVICES ALLOWS MTS TO CONDUCT INFECTIOUS DISEASE TESTING MORE EFFICIENTLY AND MAXIMIZE THE PLACEMENT OF SAFE ORGANS AND TISSUES IN THE COMMUNITY. THE MTS BUILDING HOUSES A CRITICAL CARE UNIT WITH THREE FULLY EQUIPPED ORS WHERE DONOR MANAGEMENT OCCURS. THE KEY CLINICAL TECHNOLOGIES AND EQUIPMENT INCLUDE X-RAY, AN ECHOCARDIOGRAM, CARDIAC CATHETERIZATION CAPABILITIES AND A CT SCANNER, WHICH ARE ALL "FIRSTS" IN THE INDUSTRY.AIDING THE CLINICAL PROCESS IS THE DONOR PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT STAFF, WHICH INTERACTS WITH THE AREA HOSPITALS TO PROVIDE SUPPORT AND EDUCATION SURROUNDING THE CLINICAL ASPECTS OF ORGAN AND TISSUE DONATION AND TRANSPLANTATION. THESE PERSONNEL DEVELOP COLLABORATIVE RELATIONSHIPS WITH OVER 120 AREA HOSPITALS AND NUMEROUS PHYSICIANS AND NURSES. PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION SERVICES PROVIDED BY THE DONOR PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT STAFF MEMBERS ENSURE A POSITIVE PRESENCE IN THE HEALTHCARE COMMUNITY. IN 2013 THESE SERVICES INCLUDED THREE PROFESSIONAL E-NEWSLETTERS DISTRIBUTED TO HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS CONTAINING BOTH CLINICAL AND GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT ORGAN AND TISSUE DONATION AND TRANSPLANTATION; HUNDREDS OF EDUCATIONAL IN-SERVICES GEARED TOWARD ANY TOPIC RELATED TO THE ORGAN AND TISSUE DONATION PROCESS; ONGOING ASSISTANCE FOR HOSPITALS WITH COMPLIANCE WITH STATE AND FEDERAL REGULATIONS, DONATION POLICIES WITHIN THEIR INSTITUTIONS, AND ANALYSIS OF QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DONATION DATA. IN SUPPORT OF NATIONAL DONATE LIFE MONTH SEVERAL REGISTRY DRIVES AND DISPLAYS WERE SET UP AT AREA HOSPITALS TO PROMOTE DONATION AND SIGN PEOPLE UP ON THE STATE ORGAN AND TISSUE DONOR REGISTRIES. MTS'S EFFORTS TO EDUCATE HOSPITAL STAFF MEMBERS ABOUT THE ORGAN AND TISSUE DONATION PROCESS ENSURES THAT APPROPRIATE STEPS ARE TAKEN WHEN A DEATH IS IMMINENT AND THAT ALL ELIGIBLE FAMILIES RECEIVE THE OPTION TO DONATE.COMMUNICATION AND COLLABORATION IN 2013 RESULTED IN EIGHT OUT OF 10 MTS HOSPITAL PARTNERS RATING THEIR SATISFACTION WITH THE ORGANIZATION AS 10 OUT OF 10.MTS COORDINATORS FROM THE FAMILY SUPPORT SERVICES AND DONOR SERVICES DEPARTMENTS WORK WITH FAMILIES AT THE TIME OF THEIR LOVED ONE'S DEATH, OFFERING EDUCATION, INFORMATION AND SUPPORT DURING THEIR DECISION-MAKING PROCESS. FOLLOWING THE DONATION, STAFF MEMBERS FROM THE MTS CENTER FOR LIFE SERVE AS A SOURCE OF INFORMATION, PROVIDING TOOLS TO HELP FAMILIES WITH THEIR GRIEF JOURNEY AND OFFERING SPECIFIC SERVICES DESIGNED TO MEET THE DONOR FAMILIES' NEEDS. SUCH SERVICES INCLUDE PROVIDING BEREAVEMENT SUPPORT MATERIALS AND WORKSHOPS, SUPPORT THROUGH REMEMBRANCE CEREMONIES AND COMMUNITY EVENTS, AND FACILITATING COMMUNICATIONS BETWEEN FAMILIES OF DONORS AND RECIPIENTS OF THEIR LOVED ONE'S GIFTS. IN 2013, MTS SERVED 2,542 DONOR FAMILIES, HANDLED 800 PIECES OF DONOR FAMILY/RECIPIENT CORRESPONDENCE; HOSTED 1,800 PEOPLE AT THREE CANDLELIGHT MEMORIAL CEREMONIES, WHICH FEATURED INSPIRATIONAL STORIES FROM TRANSPLANT RECIPIENTS AND A DONOR PHOTO TRIBUTE; PROVIDED 167 REFERRALS TO RESOURCES AND COMMUNITY COUNSELING SUPPORT PROGRAMS, HOSTED A PRIVATE SOCIAL MEDIA GROUP WITH OVER 120 MEMBERS THAT SERVED AS A VIRTUAL SUPPORT GROUP; IN HONOR OF THOSE WHO GENEROUSLY DONATE THEIR ORGANS OR TISSUE, MTS PRESENTS ALL DONOR FAMILIES WITH A GIFT OF LIFE DONOR MEDAL WITHIN A FEW DAYS OF THE DONATION. AS A WAY TO PROVIDE ONGOING SUPPORT TO DONOR FAMILIES, MTS OFFERS THE GRIEF COMPANION PROGRAM. THIS UNIQUE PROGRAM PROMOTES AND FOSTERS THE HEALING PROCESS AFTER A LOSS BY PROVIDING A COMPANION FOR INDIVIDUALS EXPERIENCING AND NEEDING SUPPORT FOR A RECENT LOSS IN THEIR LIVES. IN 2013, THE PROGRAM HAD 26 TRAINED GRIEF COMPANIONS. A STRONG FOCUS ON DONOR FAMILY COMMUNICATION AND SUPPORT RESULTED IN HIGH LEVELS OF FAMILY SATISFACTION WITH MTS SERVICES IN 2013. AS REPORTED THROUGH SURVEY FEEDBACK, EIGHT OUT OF 10 MTS DONOR FAMILIES RATED THEIR SATISFACTION WITH THE ORGANIZATION AS 10 OUT OF 10.MID-AMERICA TRANSPLANT SERVICES PROVIDES INFORMATION, BROCHURES AND LOGO DRIVEN PROMOTIONAL ITEMS IN ADDITION TO SUPPLIES FOR DONOR REGISTRY DRIVES UPON REQUEST. THIS INFORMATION SUMMARIZES CRITICAL TOPICS AND CLEARLY IDENTIFIES MTS'S ROLE AS A PROCUREMENT ORGANIZATION AND ASSISTS WITH GETTING THE MESSAGE OF ORGAN AND TISSUE DONATION TO STUDENT POPULATIONS. THESE MATERIALS ARE ALSO USED TO SPREAD AWARENESS ABOUT DONATION TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC, ENCOURAGING THE COMMUNITY TO TAKE ACTION AND ENROLL ON THEIR STATE ORGAN AND TISSUE DONOR REGISTRY. DURING 2013, MTS PARTICIPATED IN 26 COMMUNITY EVENTS AS A WAY TO DISPEL MYTHS AND MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT THE DONATION PROCESS AND INCREASE DONOR REGISRY ENROLLMENT.THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, THE MTS COMMUNITY EDUCATION DEPARTMENT HOSTS STUDENTS FROM ST.LOUIS AREA SCHOOLS FOR EDUCATIONAL TOURS AT THE MTS FACILITY. IN 2013, MTS HOSTED OVER 45 SCHOOLS REACHING 1,992 STUDENTS.BEGINNING AS A PILOT PROGRAM, MTS OPERATES THREE DMV OFFICES TO ENHANCE THE DMV CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE WHILE ENCOURAGING PEOPLE TO LEARN ABOUT ORGAN AND TISSUE DONATION. IN 2013, 57,262 PEOPLE ENROLLED ON THE DONOR REGISTRY AT AN MTS DMV AND 23,000 MORE ENROLLED AT A ST.LOUIS CITY DMV THAT MTS PARTNERED WITH TO INCREASE REGISTRY ENROLLMENT. THIS INNOVATIVE PROGRAM - IN WHICH DMV STAFF PLAYS A CRITICAL ROLE - GIVES PARTICIPANTS THE CHANCE TO PROUDLY SHOW THE DONOR HEART ON THEIR DRIVER'S LICENSE, INDICATING THEIR WISH TO BE AN ORGAN AND TISSUE DONOR.THIS EFFORT WAS COUPLED WITH A GRASSROOTS EDUCATION EFFORT THAT ENABLED MTS TO PARTNER WITH KEY COMMUNITY LEADERS TO PROMOTE THE BENEFITS OF JOINING THE ORGAN AND TISSUE DONOR REGISTRY. ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTEEN COMMUNITY EVENTS HIGHLIGHTED MTS'S LIFESAVING MESSAGE OF DONATION REACHING OVER 55,000 PEOPLE.MTS MAINTAINS A QUALITY VOLUNTEER PROGRAM, TRAINING INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE BEEN PERSONALLY IMPACTED BY THE ORGANIZATION'S MISSION TO SERVE AS AMBASSADORS TO THE CAUSE BY ENGAGING THEM IN VARIOUS OPPORTUNITIES TO SHARE THEIR PERSONAL STORY AND PUT A "FACE" TO ORGAN AND TISSUE DONATION. THE VOLUNTEER PROGRAM HAD 109 MEMBERS IN 2013 WHOSE PERSONAL STORIES WERE SHARED THROUGH MULTIPLE STUDENT PRESENTATIONS, STAFF AND PARTNER MEETINGS, THROUGH ONLINE COMMUNICATIONS, AND IN PRINTED MATERIALS.
