    Personal Information Handling Policy

    Each piece of information that is requested in the donor form in the blood bank is in some way connected to your and the patients well being. We ask your contacts to get back to you with any feedback on the tests. We ask questions on your lifestyle and health to make sure that the blood you donate is safe for the patient. Please do fill the form in full and with a lot of care. The security and privacy of the information you provide is our top priority. We keep the information you provide us strictly confidential. The information is used for no purpose other than stated.

    Safe Blood Starts With Me

    Safe, voluntary blood donors are the first and most important line of defence in preventing the transmission of HIV and other infections through transfusion. Voluntary blood donors, particularly from low-risk populations, who give blood regularly have been identified as safe donors because they are motivated solely by altruism and have no reason to conceal lifestyle or medical conditions which may preclude them from donating blood. They are the cornerstone of an integrated strategy for blood safety. Safe blood does not only depend on application of science and technology but also on you.

    Donor Welfare

    Can I get any disease like AIDS or Hepatitis or any other disease by Blood donation? That is impossible. Only sterile disposables are used to collect your blood. These disposables can be used only one time. This totally eliminates any remote chance of catching any disease from blood donation. Any side effects of Blood donations? No ! Not really. Do ask any regular blood donor about it. A small percentage of first time donors may psychologically feel a little dizzy but only for a few minutes.

    Process Of Giving Blood

    The Process of Giving Blood is fairly simple and straight-forward. On arrival to the blood bank the staff will guide you through the entire procedure. But in order to make your blood donation experience a truly memorable one, we want to ensure that everything falls right in place. Therefore we request you to spend some time understanding the process well.
