Blood Donation

A noble gesture to help a fellow human being, blood donation is carried out when a person voluntarily agrees for blood to be drawn with the intention of donating it. This donated blood may be used for transfusions or may be separated into individual components to be used as required.

If you have any concerns on the procedural safety of blood donation, or would like to share your experience with others, join our support group for the same!

What is the importance of knowing the blood groups?

For all practical and routine purposes, it is ideal to transfuse to the patient with the same group of blood which he belongs to. It is only under very dire emergency that we take O group as universal donor and AB groups as universal recipient. Under no circumstances O group can get any other blood except O. Similarly A group patient cannot be given B group blood and vice versa.
