Donate blood, Save lives!

Why is blood required?

Many lifesaving medical treatments require blood transfusions. What and how many blood products are given to a patient will depend on his or her individual needs. Some of the patients in need of blood transfusion :
  • Victims of traumatic injuries and accidents
  • Leukemia patients
  • Burn patients
  • Those receiving organ or bone marrow transplants
  • Premature babies
  • Cancer patients
  • Patients undergoing certain surgeries

Here's what you do for donating blood:
  • Have a good meal and lot of fluids before you donate blood.
  • You will be asked a few questions about your health, previous blood donation history (if any) and will be given a form to fill up.
  • All information you provide is confidential and will not be made available to any agency or authority.
  • You will undergo a medical examination including height, weight, blood pressure and haemoglobin to ensure that you are healthy enough to donate blood.
  • Donor safety is as important as blood safety. If found fit, you can donate blood.
  • You will not develop any disease through blood donation.
  • It takes about 10 minutes to donate blood.

Eligibility for blood donation:
  • Age     -  18 to 60 years
  • Weight  - above 45 kgs
  • Haemoglobin   - above 12.5g (we will be checking this at the time of donation)
  • No malaria, jaundice or typhoid or any major surgery in the last 12 months
  • No medication 72 hrs prior to donation. Those on medication for diabetes or hypertension cannot donate
  • A proper breakfast/lunch before donation
