Dropped in for a plasma donation today and they asked if I could switch and do whole blood as there forecasting isn’t liking good for the festive season, very low stocks
Big changes st the Brisbane CBD blood bank
- no more forms to complete, it’s done on a tablet, two days in and they seemed to have it fairly sorted
- no longer get asked if I’m pregnant, the tablet has that sorted
- no more plastic disposable cups, re-usable cups in place
- no more water bottles, except if you on the chair donating plasma, must remember to take a bottle from now on
Next donation is no. 50, it’ll be plasma but have to wait four weeks as I donated blood. Hopefully get my oldest to do his 3rd and the daughter her 1st.
