Good Afternoon all!! I am hoping someone can share with me their policy and form that is used in accordance of the policy on the subject of releasing tissue per patient request to the patient? We have had a few incident recently where the patient/ family has asked for placenta and or the fetus ( less than 20 weeks gestation).
My concern is that these specimens or any specimen in formalin is the formalin! We have a very old policy and I am not comfortable with it. I would like to use other's policies as a guide (not copy it verbatim). Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated. TIA. v/r, Valerie Valerie A.
