[The mortuary: a place where lives can be saved].
The mortuary is a hospital department dedicated to the care of patients who have died on-site. It is also a place of life and hope. Tissue samples (corneas, heart valves, etc.) may be taken there for people awaiting transplants. The final outcome will depend on respectful treatment of, and high-quality dialogue with, the deceased's family.
