1. Preparing your blood
Labels are applied to your blood donation bag and test tube vials. After you donate, your unit of blood is then transported to our component laboratory.
2. Separating blood components
Blood donations are separated into components, including red cells, platelets, and plasma.
3. Testing
Your blood is typed, which includes identifying its ABO type and a positive or negative Rh factor. Each donation of blood is also tested for safety. No blood is released for transfusion without passing the required tests.
4. Storage and transport
After your blood has been separated, passed all tests, is properly typed and labeled, it is packed in special temperature-controlled containers. It is now ready to be distributed for patient transfusion in hospitals or air ambulances.
