Does the hospital need anything to do the collection?

No. Once you register with Cell Care you will receive a collection pack containing everything that your lead maternity carer, obstetrician or midwife will need to collect your baby's cord blood and tissue. You just need to remember to take the pack with you to the birth centre when you go in to have your baby.

Hospital staff do not perform the cord blood and tissue collection. If your LMC is part of the hospital team, please let us know.
