RJA# 2b

Research topic:

The research topic I chose was tissue banking. Tissue banking has been around for quite some time. There are not that many people that donate. Many are not being educated about the many positive outcomes of receiving or even donating. People need to be educated on the subject before the time of death.

I know a little about it and would love to learn more about it. I currently work at a tissue bank proceh ssing human tissue which is very rewarding. I would like to find out from this research why are the numbers so low in donation in the black and hispanic communities. There are alot of myths that we face with donating.

Alot of the black community that I have spoken with do not trust the health care system and others just have not even thought about it. This was very alarming to me.
