Blood donation

Our club donated a bottle of blood type O on 18th of February. The patient was a 75-years-old woman who lives in 17th Sein Pan Myaing, South Dagon. She has been suffering from swollen intestinal, and vomitted blood. As a result, she needed blood transfusion. The hospital she has been was Thin Gan Kyoon, San Pya Hospital.

The patient's guardian contacted the club to donate O type blood on 3 pm in the evening of 18th of February. Therefore, we tried to search and contact O type blood donor. After that, we went to the hospital at 3:30 pm. We took a rest when we reached to the hospital. Testing for blood type, blood pressure, hemoglobin were carried out at 4:00 pm in the evening. After donation at 5:00 pm, our club offered the cold drinks to the donor. In the end, we sent off the donor to home at 5:00 pm, and back to the club at 6:00 pm.
